    @Anita do you happen to know whether those Yoast settings get turned off when the Yoast plugin is deactivated then reactivated?

    I've had to do some plugin troubleshooting recently and that would be a possible reason they got turned off.

    Hi Anita:

    Good catch! That setting was toggled off for both FB and Twitter.

    Hopefully that takes care of it for me.

    Hi Michael & Anita:

    I appreciate the dialog about this issue.

    It's still unresolved for me.

    I am using Graphite and Yoast (can't remember the exact sequence, but I deactivated/reactivated them both and didn't observe any improvement.) They are both currently activated; I believe I decided I needed features from both, and since I didn't observe improvement, decided to keep them both activated.

    I use WP Engine and they didn't think the problem was on their end although the FB debugger error that Michael is seeing makes it seem like it could/should be. Since Michael is using a different host, maybe now.

    After publishing a post here's what I'm doing:

    For FB, I go to the debugger and scrape a bunch of times. Sometimes the featured image eventually resolves, sometimes not. I'm not noticing any improvement if the post only has a featured image and no other images.

    For Twitter, I don't observe any improvement using their card validator.

    Best,
    DL

    New content.

    Yes, I'm doing the same process as you describe Anita. I can usually force FB to load the images in the post, then select the one that is featured.

    I don't see a way to scrape Twitter...just keep refreshing their debugger?

    This is a relatively new problem for my site on both FB and Twitter. Prior to about ~6 weeks ago they both displayed the featured image without needing to scrape...
