    Has anyone asked facebook why they can't find your images?

    Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

    Default Re: No Image when sharing on Facebook

    I'm struggling with this too. Also I doubt facebook would even reply if they were asked.

    If I link a product page directly I get no thumbnails at all. Also the only thumbnails that show up when linked to the main page are those that I have inserted into the main page file via the admin and html. No other images show!

    Found this on the help page but now sure where/how to execute it and what it will do?

    I don’t have a preview for my link.

    If a preview is not displaying correctly for your URL, you may need to contact the webmaster of the site you are trying to share to check whether it meets Facebook's requirements.

    In order to generate a Share preview successfully, a website must include the following three meta tags in its source HTML:

    <meta name="title" content="Article headline here" />
    <meta name="description" content="Article summary here" />
    <link rel="image_src" href="http://www.example.com" />

    Please make sure that this site includes these tags in the section of its HTML. Also, note that these tags are case-sensitive and URLs must be absolute. For more information, click the "How do I make sure the Share Preview works?" link at the bottom of http://www.facebook.com/share_partners.php.

    Suggestions?

    Thank you!
    I have hound that FaceBook sees the pixel_trans.gif first. all the other images should be there if you click the right arrow nest to the pictures.

    My store is NOT in a subfolder like your /shop folder. Don't know if htis helps, but a new face in the thread.

    I tried linking to your site and see that Facebook is waiting forever for the images to show up.

    Try the Clear Image Cache then un-install and re-install option in IH2 from your admin.

    Default Re: No Image when sharing on Facebook

    Can anybody tell me which file this code is meant to go in?

    In order to generate a Share preview successfully, a website must include the following three meta tags in its source HTML:

    <meta name="title" content="Article headline here" />
    <meta name="description" content="Article summary here" />
    <link rel="image_src" href="http://www.example.com" />

    I'm struggling with this too... Any solution to the meta tag-question?

    The only image tag on my product page is this: <meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" />

    And that can't be good, if Facebook needs a <link rel="image_src" href="http://www.example.com" /> ?

    Well I've been struggling with this issue as well but someone gently suggested to me that I move my shop to root and it did indeed fix this issue. I am so happy and so grateful!
