Everytime i try to share a wordpress post in my Linkedin it doesn´t pick up the imagem in the article. Don´t have any problem doing this on Facebook for example and i think everything in the Open Graph Meta is correct because my source code says:

meta property="og:image" content="http://smartkiss.net/assets/online-ad.jpg"

The dimensions are more than 80 x 150 pixels as Linkedin recommends. Any idea why this might be happening ?

Thanks

  • did you solved it anyway. I'm struggling with it for a new website, it is working in twitter, whatsapp, telegram, but not in linkedIn – Ricker Silva Dec 21 '16 at 17:04

One of the possible reason might be that LinkedIn takes image from oEmbed tag as it shown in another topic.

I faced with wrong image choosing by LinkedIn in my WordPress site. I found the problem by discovering URL by LinkedIn post inspector and saw the next information:

*LinkedIn shows image source*

Try serving your images in a .png format versus a .jpg format. I know of several people having the exact same issue and this always worked.
