Search Appearance Preview not showing the set thumbnail image

Hello @shey18,

Thanks for reaching out about the Google Preview feature in the Yoast SEO plugin. The image shown in the preview is pulled from the featured image field. You can check that out for posts and pages. However, the WooCommerce product category doesn’t have this field but a thumbnail field.

Though you don’t see your thumbnail in the Google preview of our plugin, this doesn’t mean it won’t show in search results. When you view the page source, you can confirm that the primaryImageofPage property is present.

Hello,

Thank you for your response. The primaryImageofPage?property is missing on all my site pages. I’ve checked the pages’ source code. I’m seeing this instead:

“image”:{“@type”:”ImageObject”,”@id”:”https://domain.com/#primaryimage”,

Is it the same thing?

Please confirm.

Thank you!

Please provide a sample URL to add some context

Hello,

Here’s a sample URL:

https://www.earthbuddypet.com/product-category/mushroom/

primaryImageofPage?can’t be found on the page source.

Thanks for the sample URL, @shey18. I can confirm that the?primaryImageofPage?property is missing. Apart from that, all Yoast SEO structured data output is missing because you have another plugin managing structured data: <script type="application/ld+json" class="saswp-schema-markup-output">

So, since the set thumbnail image is showing, reach out to that plugin developer for further assistance.
