Cropped image issue

@mark988

For most normal use-cases, we’d suggest that you manually set og:image values on your posts via the Yoast SEO plugin, and ensure that their dimensions are between 1200x800px and 2000x1600px (and that they’re less than 2mb in size).

Should I modify code?

Hi @mark988

If the image you’ve set in the Facebook section of the social tab of the Yoast SEO meta box fits the necessary size and resolution requirements, we would expect it to output correctly. We also output the og:image:width and og:image:height tag – https://developer.yoast.com/features/opengraph/functional-specification/#conditional-tags

Would it be possible for you to provide us with some screenshots (you can use snipboard.io to upload a screenshot and share a link) on what you’ve set as the Facebook image and what appears when sharing it on Facebook looks like? And could you share with us an example URL where this occurs so we can check it on Facebook’s Sharing Debugger Tool as well?
