Facebook bugs

Please be aware that Facebook scraper and Facebook cache are OFTEN subject to bugs. This means it may not see updated contents or may not be able to fetch the featured image. That's normal even though not frequent, but if you're sure you did anything right and sharing doesn't work properly, don't exclude a problem on behalf of Facebook.

In which case, a good trick is to edit your post, change the permalink a little bit, and try sharing it again.

When the URL changes, Facebook will ignore previously cached information and will fetch the new data, which usually solves the problem.
