Hi,
first of all thank you very much for the netlify service! That’s great :slight_smile:

I was creating my website, deploying it on github & hosting it here on netlify. So far so good. www.fritzschnitzer.com

I tried to change the previewpicture for socialmedia, like facebook, instagram etc. and added these metatags:

<meta property=“og:image” content="https://www.fritzschnitzer.com/images/preview.png />



I was checking on facebook debugger

but i only get this feedback:

"
Warnings That Should Be Fixed

  • Invalid URL

Provided og:image URL, https://fritzschnitzer.com/images/preview.png /> <meta property= was not a valid URL.

  • Missing Properties

The following required properties are missing: og:url, og:type, fb:app_id
"

Do you have any idea how i could solve that?

Thank you very much in advance,
Fritz

Sure, check out this article for all the details on debugging and affecting sharing services:

The most relevant piece of information in there is the caching details - changes you make will be cached by our service by up to 48 hours, so you should test on a different URL every time you make changes, lest you see the “old” information even though your new HTML is fixed.
