    An Update:

    Since that first example using the WP Media Manager, I have done it a couple more times with mixed results. One time it used the the wrong image again from somewhere else on my page, rather than from the article. The next time there were two images in the article and it used the second one rather than the first. But at least it was from the article.

    I’m confused.

    p.s. Jetpack also just started adding the URL shortcode to the custom message.

    Another update:

    I modified my theme to use “featured images” to see if that would would have any effect. Every post I’ve Ive done since then used the wrong image.

    Hi!

    when you said

    Today I used the WP Media Manager which used a path that looks like this:
    https://www.newscorpse.com/ncWP/../Pix/Charts/congress-media-approval.jpg

    can you describe exactly what you did and how you used the media uploader? you could even take a screencast using https://screener.com

    Also, have you modified the upload folder by adding the specific define( ) call in your wp-config file?

    Lastly, have you deactivated the WP Easy Uploader plugin? And while we’re at it, what other plugins are you using?

    I just moved my site to live. Previously I setup the site on a subdomin for development and testing. There I also setup a dummy facebook and twitter account to test the features of the site. I use formidable pro to create posts on the site. When the site was on the subdomain and a made a post, Facebook set the image beside the post info to my agency’s logo. Now that I have the site live (https://www.mecca911.org), when we make a post there is no image displayed. The only major difference is that the live Facebook page is a ‘page’ versus a personal page that i setup for testing. I don’t want to force our dispatchers to have to upload an image every time they make a news post. Anyone have any suggestions on what might be the cause? Our facebook site is: https://www.facebook.com/MCOEM if you want to take a look at the posts that are created.

    Hi Richard. Sorry for the late response. Holidays, ya know. As for your questions…

    1) The way I used the Media Manager was simply to click on the button in the post editor. The Media Manager came up, and I clicked the upload link. If I want to store the file in a particular folder, I will change the upload folder first in the Media Settings page.

    2) I checked my config file and there is no define call that says “upload.”

    3) I did disable the WP Easy Uploader plugin for testing, and it made no difference. I have since re-enabled it. My other plugins are:

    AddThis Social Bookmarking
    Akismet
    Comment Form Quicktags
    Similar Posts
    Simple Trackback Validation
    Stop SOPA Ribbon (which I’ve modified to be a ribbon advertising my book “Fox Nation vs. Reality.”) I have also disabled this plugin for testing.

    I have recently noticed that if I publish a post without the Jetpack/Publicize Facebook box checked, then paste the post’s url into the Facebook debug utility, then manually post the article on Facebook, the correct image appears.
