    Hi Gourav, you have quite the job with support for so many themes. Thanks for all your hard work!

    I am beginning to see that there are still aspects related to social media that this theme has not yet resolved. It is not ready for publishing on iPad, smart phone, and now I find out as, when posting the front page as a link in Facebook - it offers no thumbnail in Facebook (only shows the link).

    Is there a way I can talk to the developers over these issues? I paid for the theme and expected it would be further along.

    Many thanks,
    Teresa

    Hello,

    Go to header.php present in your theme directory and add the code given below

    Code:
    <link rel="image_src" href="image of the page" />
    <meta property="og:title" content="Enter your  title" />
    <meta property="og:site_name" content="Enter your site name" />
    <meta property="og:image" content="Enter your image address here" />
    <meta property="og:description" content="Enter your description text here" />
    Sending image for reference

    There is no need to put anything in first line
    *In second line put your Title
    *In third line enter site name or any thing else that you want to show there
    *In fourth line put image address
    *In fifth line put description text.

    Note:- These changes take some time to show changes in your facebook page. But you can check your the website url in the [debugger](https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug). It should re-scrape with the new parameters.
