Wrong images in carousel and recommended posts
Answered
Hi, I am having issues with these displaying the wrong images. It's using my site logo. I have checked yoast and hubbub and neither have the settings messing anything up. It is not doing it on my other blog. How can I change which images they use? Thank you!

Hey Kelsey!
Can you link me to a post or two that appear with the logo in Grow features? I want to check the page source and see if that helps pinpoint the issue.I will keep this thread private if you do not want your domain shared publicly.

You don't need to keep private, I know a few others on a facebook blog group were having similar issues, so I am going to direct them to this post.

Thanks for sharing that link!
Taking a look at the page source, it looks like All in One SEO is outputting the OpenGraph metadata for your site and the og:image tag (which is what Grow uses for the images in its features) is outputting your site logo:
Adjusting your All in One SEO settings should help! It looks like changing the default image settings for Facebook will impact the og:image tag according to this All in One SEO article.
After you've made those changes, clear your site's cache and any caching plugins. Then go to Grow Publisher Portal > Grow Settings > Recommended Content and click the Refresh Posts button. This will tell Grow to go back through its post bookmarks for your site and make any necessary updates, like using the featured image instead of your logo!

Thanks Ben. I was able to take it off of All in One SEO. I removed the image and set the settings to Featured Image. I did this for Facebook and Twitter. Now, a few of the posts are working correctly, but not all. I have cleared the cache and refreshed the Grow recommended content. When I view the page source now, og:image is linking to the correct images, yet still isn't displaying them in the recommend content. Do I need to wait a bit longer and try to refresh the recommended content again? Or are you seeing something I'm not? Thank you!

You're welcome, Kelsey!
It can take up to 24 hours for Grow to comb through all your posts and refresh the metadata. If you're still not seeing the featured images tomorrow afternoon, let us know and we will take another look!
