Change Shared Facebook Content Elements

Hi,

yesterday we have used RankMath’s SOCIAL-Tab to prepare OpenGraph-Content for Facebook. After finishing this step, we opened Facebook and pasted the frontend-URL of this page and posted the Facebook post. All RM OpenGraph content has been perfectly used.

Question A) – Change OpenGraph content afterwards
Today the client wanted us to change the already posted OpenGraph content of this post. For this reason we did the following steps, but it didn’t work

1) Changed OpenGraph content (picture AND Title AND Description text) in the Social-Tab in RankMath and saved
2) Opened Facebook Debug tool (https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/sharing/) and rescraped the site. All the new content (image, title, description) was now showing perfectly correct in the Facebook Debug tool.
3) Visited the Facebook page in an icognito browser with cleared frontend cache => but here the old content (image, title, description) was still visible.

Now our question:
How is the correct process of changing Facebook content with RankMath so that the new content will be shown on Facebook too, not only in the debug tool?

Question B) – Facebook Authorship not working
In RankMath-settings we have edited the customers PRIVATE Facebook profile URL in “SEO Titles & Meta” / Tab “Social Meta” / Field “Facebook Authorship”. As we have learned, doing this should present the name of the client as an author UNDER the description of the OpenGraph post.

Now our question:
The name of the customer isn’t showing here. The description is the last element of the facebook post, but the author-line is missing. How do we get the name of the customer into to Facebook post?

Or would it be possible that it didn’t work, because WE as an agency and as an admin of the clients site posted the post and not the client himself? Could this be the reason why it’s not showing up?

Thanks in advance for your help an best regards!
Michael
