Hello:

When posting a course link on Facebook for sharing a course, the image that appears has nothing to do with my course.

Example:

www.cesalud.com.mx/cursos/guruPrograms/1...ecnologia-salud.html

When posted on Facebook it display a PayPal icon instead of the course image. See attached image.



How can this be fixed?

Please advise.

- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job

O believe that is exactly what I did.

E.J This is my course

www.cesalud.com.mx/cursos/left/ingenieri...ecnologia-salud.html

I post this link on my Facebook profile and it gets displayed with a PayPal Image as shown above.

The image, I believe should be either the banner or the avatar assign to the course isn't it?

This is the reason why I say it is not working.

I know this is the Joomsocial forum, but the support request submitted under Guru Pro, never get answered.

I provide the screenshot of the Facebook post.

How can I fit this problem?

Cheers

HI, Carlos.

Guru doesn't have og meta tags so FB crawler uses first image it founds on the page. First image is your logo :)
Try to scrap again URL you're trying to share: developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/
