Issue with Facebook Thumbnail while using canonical link.

    The default featured image is not loading as thumbnail image on Facebook while I put canonical link from advance tab. Simply, thumbnail image is being replaced with canonical URL’s featured image. Is this a bug?

    I want to load current post’s featured image as thumbnail on Facebook having canonical URL linked.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Could you share with us (in the Sensitive Data section) one of the affected URLs so we can check it by ourselves?

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Hi Pawan,

    This is not a bug. This is just how Facebook treats canonical tags. You have to change the image on the canonical URL as well.

    Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
