How to set delay time before post will be shared via Publicize?

  • Hello Jetpack,
    I use many plugins for automate Youtube blogging.

    Current, everything work fine except: with newly automated post, Publicize share it (via Facebook) before “Automatic Youtube thumbnail extracor” can get, download, set as Featured image.

    So post shared on Facebook have wrong thumbnail image (almost my site banner).
    If I go to Facebook object debugger right after, and manually enter post URL, “Fetch new scrape information”, everything okay.
    (“Scrape existing information” complain about missing og:image,…)

    So I need a workaround to delay publicize, for example: 25 secs, I think it enough for my newly automated post become out-of-box.

    Thanks, ??

    While Jetpack doesn’t include any option to delay Publicize, since that action is done on WordPress.com servers, there might be a work-around.

    I’m not familiar with the “Automatic Youtube thumbnail extractor” plugin, but does it add Featured Images to scheduled posts as well? If so, you could try to schedule your posts instead of publishing them directly. Even if posts are scheduled to be published a few minutes later, that could give enough time to the plugin to create a Featured Image for the post.

    I hope this helps.

    I try to increase priority hook call of “Automatic Youtube thumbnail extractor” to 9 (higher than 10 of Publicize) and wait for test result!

    I will come back later, thanks Jeremy.

    Same issue here…
    I always schedule my posts a day or a week before, but Facebook can’t create the image from it if it’s not published yet, so when the post is published Facebook can’t get the image before it appears on the page and there is no featured image on it as result.
    I have to manually use the Facebook “debugger”, delete the post and then share it again on my page.
