  • Displaying Image When Copying & Pasting Web URL Into Facebook

    Posted by Simon Matthews on July 26, 2013 at 8:12 am

    Hi, I’m having some trouble getting my website image to be displayed when I copy and paste the URL into Facebook. I’ve Googled this problem a few times now and followed the instructions that I’ve found but none of them have worked. Is there any way to do this?

    Thanks.

    hello…

    occasionally facebook doesn’t seem to show thumbnails when you paste an image url into a post – i presume that’s what you mean? if that happens the only workaround i’ve ever seen is to just copy what you have typed so far (including the url) and then reload fb and paste it into a new status…

    is that the type of issue you are having?

    I’m trying to share the link to my website and there should be an image that appears when you copy and paste the link, but it doesn’t appear. I have a feeling it is because my website is a free one and only has a subdomain and not a proper domain, because I went into Facebook Debugger today and it says that the URL is not an accepted one.
