Hi @rapidozack
We’re sorry to hear that you’re encountering issues with the social sharing feature in the Yoast SEO plugin, and we want to try and help resolve this.
Just to clarify, even with the free version of Yoast SEO, you should still be able to set the desired image, title, and description, and it will output the open graph tags used by Facebook and the other social media platforms for social sharing. The premium version of Yoast SEO has the same functionality, but it just has the capability to show you the actual preview from the Yoast SEO meta box itself, even before sharing.
In the premium version, we also recently introduced social appearance templates that you can use for the different content types and taxonomies, however, this shouldn’t affect the usability of the free version at all.
When viewing the page source of the URL you mentioned, we are seeing the correct open graph tags being generated by the Yoast SEO plugin. When we share it on Facebook’s Sharing Debugger Tool, the correct social preview is being generated.
In fact, when we try and share the link on Facebook itself, it is generating the correct social preview – https://snipboard.io/86NzJ1.jpg
Could you please provide us with more details and a screenshot of exactly where the issue is as we’re unable to reproduce it with the information given, as everything seems to be working as expected. We’d like to try our best to help, so we’ll need more help and information so we are on the same page.
