    I updated all my AIOSEO stuff recently, and around the same time, my photo previews stopped showing up on social media (FB and twitter). Is there something I need to set in the plugin related to this? Thanks.

    Hey @eac2015,

    AIOSEO is outputting this image as the OG:image – https://ethiopianadoptionconnection.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/real-cropped-smalllogo-e1499224103438.png. That’s the default image, which is your site logo currently.

    However, it looks you’re site is outputting a second set of Open Graph tags, since you’re using the Open Graph and Twitter Card Tags plugin. That’s what’s currently being used by social network sites.

    On social media sites the logo only is showing up on every post, no other photos. The All in One must be overriding the open graph. Is that what it is designed to do? How should i fix this? I want the chosen open graph image to be the social media preview. Thx.

    Facebook’s sharing debugger showed me the other image, but that could have been incorrect.

    In any case, if you don’t want to use the image that AIOSEO outputs, and use the one from the Open Graph and Twitter Card Tags plugin instead, then you can simply disable Open Graph and Twitter meta under Social Networks in our plugin.

    If you do want to use AIOSEO to control your images and other social meta, you’ll need to configure our plugin accordingly. You can change the default image and default image source under Social Networks, and you can override the default by setting images in our metabox for any page/term.

    The open graph is strange. Before i hit “publish,” it shows me a preview of my chosen photo (which is different for each post) but then when the link is posted, it shows the logo instead.

    I’ll try your first option if I understood correctly. Thanks for the help.

    “In any case, if you don’t want to use the image that AIOSEO outputs, and use the one from the Open Graph and Twitter Card Tags plugin instead, then you can simply disable Open Graph and Twitter meta under Social Networks in our plugin.”

    Are these the settings you are referring to? Thank you.

    Enable Open Graph Markup
    Enable Twitter Card

    @eac2015 I don’t think we have settings that are called that. Is this in AIOSEO or another plugin?

    Yes, it is AIOSEO. I unchecked them and I think it works now! I will write back if I need more help. Thank you.

    I was going to upload a screenshot but I don’t see how to do it.
