Hi

On that page, you are telling FB to use this image:

<meta property="og:image" content="https://xxxx.com/images/15/be/bhu-be1.jpg"/>


From looking at FB debugger for this page, it seems this is what it does. The Facebook debugger is available here: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/

This is what you want to use to check what data FB will be using when sharing your page. You can then adjust your OG tags if they don't match what you want.

Hi

Do what? how can a plugin know what image you want to share? I'm not sure I understand what you mean?

sh404SEF will insert all the proper markup for you, so that FB or twitter can analyse your pages, but the content is up to you really?
