A lot of website owners are facing the issue that whenever they use Facebook like button, when the article link gets shared on their walls/timelines, the wrong image gets picked up.
From what I am reading, it is sometimes the 'first image' on the page that gets picked up by Facebook. There should certainly be a way of defining a specific image that Facebook like button should pick up by default OR pick up the biggest image in an article that is logically the one that should be shared alongside the link.
The 'og:url' ['og:title', 'og:description', 'og:image'] property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.
I've just seen the info about possible FB pic size requirements. But in most of the cases the pics are inserted into the post and are 700px by the longer side.
Anyone knows any solution for this?
