Unable to display preview tag on social media

Hi there, I've used the below code in the Header Code field in an attempt to make achieve a prewiew tag when posting my website link on social (facebook, etc.). Still not displaying anything!

<meta property="og:title" content="OnlineCopy.ae" />
<meta property="og:image" content="https://www.armedsoft.com/sites/default/files/untitled_4.jpg" />
<meta property="og:url" content="https://www.OnlineCopy.ae" />
<meta property="og:description" content="Express copywriting services" />

Hi @alloushz It looks like the url just needed to be scraped through the Facebook Debugger page. You can see the correct preview image here

Thanks but what about all the other channels like Twitter or blogs, are you saying every website publisher has to go to a debugger on every platform to fix this?

“The following required properties are missing: og:type, fb:app_id”

What should I do

That error is normal if you do not have an app associated with your site.

They might. I'm not super familiar with the other ones, though. Have you posted to any platforms yet? When I ran the url through the Facebook debugger the first time I saw a notice that the url had never been shared to Facebook.

Hmm.. I would think that would be enough for the info to be saved. What happens when you share a second "only me" post.

Oh it's working now, apparently I just needed to press Enter to fetch preview before sharing.. Thanks for your contribution Smiley Happy

Also found the code for Twitter preview
