I'm still trying to solve this problem. Can nobody help?
February 21, 2013 at 10:06 pm in reply to: Facebook not showing photo preview like other blog sites #22133jenniferpinkleyParticipantI did some more troubleshooting. I uninstalled everything and reinstalled WordPress. The preview still doesn't work. I also noticed that it doesn't work on Google + either. I did some reading and several sites mention inserting code in the functions.php file to add that functionality. I don't know how that all works with Genesis.
I also found a Facebook debugger: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug
When I enter one of my blog addresses, I get the following errors:

February 21, 2013 at 8:16 pm in reply to: Facebook not showing photo preview like other blog sites #22122jenniferpinkleyParticipantI'm in the process of moving the site that hasn't been working to Hostgator. The site is swirlingstone.com. I just tried to share a post now that it's on Hostgator and it STILL doesn't work. Put this post into Facebook and see what happens. http://swirlingstone.com/binghamite-pendant-set-in-sterling-silver/
This site is a clean install running on the newest version of WP and also the latest version of Genesis.
One of my other sites is http://www.discoverhistorictravel.com and it's running an older version of WP and and older version of Genesis/Lifestyle theme and it still works just fine. Both are now on the same hosting platform so the only difference is software versions.
Today I helped a friend set up a new WordPress with with a free template. It's running the same version of WP that my swirlingstone site is running, and preview graphics work just fine on Facebook too. So that really leads me to think that the problem is with Genesis or the Lifestyle theme.
I'll install the plugin on this new site, but it's ticking me off that such a simple thing is no longer working.
February 21, 2013 at 9:08 am in reply to: Facebook not showing photo preview like other blog sites #21963jenniferpinkleyParticipantI installed the plugin and it still doesn't work. When I share my main web page, I do get a preview and can select a thumbnail, but not with any other pages. Does anything with the hosting affect this kind of thing? My blogs on Hostgator work perfectly. This one is on GoDaddy.
jenniferpinkleyParticipantI installed the Use Google Libraries plugin and it's working now.
