    Hello, I'm using the Foodie Pro theme, and have noticed there are no photos when posting a blog post to Facebook. The post has photos, and has a featured image selected.

    I've seen answers on this thread that suggest I need to set Open Graph tags, however no one explains how to do that.
    Is there somewhere with my Genesis theme or child theme that I can do that?
    Do I need a plug-in to do this?

    Right now I'm most interested in learning how to do this for posts. I've seen other answers that seem to relate to the homepage, but don't address how set photos for posting blogs on social media.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    you can use JetPack or many SEO plugins, like Yoast SEO, to set the open graph tags.

    Thank you. Activating the sharing feature in Jetpack has made it so that photos now show up when I paste a blog link into a FaceBook post. That's a good start.
