I use Pure Polestar on multiple sites. Various Hosting.
After an update the sharing stopped working correctly.
if I change the theme on my site, for example “Twenty Seventeen”, sharing correctly shows the image.
I use Yoast or All in Seo Pack.
Only new post, i use https://developers.facebook.com/.
The favicon also disappears.
Thanks.

Thanks for the update. Please, send a link to a page concerned and I’ll take a look.

Thanks.

I’m not sure why changing themes is impacting your sharing info. The theme doesn’t set Open Graph tags. I can’t think what we could change in Polestar that would have any impact over Open Graph tags.

If the issue occurred after a specific Polestar update you could use a plugin called WP Rollback to switch to any of the previous theme versions to see if the issue resolves. If there is a change in the issue after rolling back, please, let us know and we’ll investigate further.

Here is what the debug tool is offering https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/?q=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.autocicognara.it%2F.

Inferred Property
The ‘og:image’ property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.

Missing Properties
The following required properties are missing: og:url, og:type, og:title, og:image, og:description, fb:app_id

I can see the above tags in your page source, I don’t know why FB isn’t using them.

<meta name="robots" content="index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1">

Your max snippet is set to -1, which most likely is incorrect.
See https://blog.seoprofiler.com/google-announces-new-meta-robots-attributes-for-snippets/.

There are many similar threads on the Yoast forum such as https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fb-debugger-reports-missing-og-tags-that-are-clearly-not-missing/. Please, consider posting on the Yoast forum. The central question is why is the debugger showing the above “Inferred Property” warning when the og:image tag is present in the page source.
