Hello,
We apologize for the inconvenience you’re facing with the Facebook sharing debugger. The error 418 indicates that the server refuses to process the request due to the teapot status code, which is unusual for a Facebook sharing issue.
To resolve this, we recommend checking if there are any server-side issues that might be causing this error. Additionally, please ensure that the og:image tag is correctly set up in the first 50Kbs of the page source, as Facebook only checks for it within this range.
If you’re using Rank Math, you can also make use of the filters for the Open Graph tags provided by Rank Math to ensure that the og:image tag is correctly set up.
If the issue persists, please feel free to get in touch with our support team for further assistance. You can reach out to them here.
We hope this helps resolve the issue you’re experiencing.

Hello,
Thank you for your patience.
The 418 response code is showing – Curl Timeout The request to scrape the URL timed out.
This can happen if your server’s firewall is blocking Facebook’s crawlers.
In this case, we recommend getting in touch with your web host to check your site further.
Looking forward to helping you.
