Help with FB Business Pages and photo transfer from AR. How do I get the photo that is part of my AR post to be part of the post on my FB Business Page when it is shared? My mug appears instead.

I gave up on posting my AR posts to FB business, as never does the photo of the post show up, it is either one of the commenters' photos or mine. It did not matter it I copied the URL or did the short URL.

Write your post directly on AR instead of copying and pasting it over. That will stop the transfer of hidden scripts which block, and and basically screw up the way you have written your post.

John McCormack provided a good suggestion.

Use the short URL and that should give you a selection of images. This does not always work. The ActiveRain interface with Facebook needs some work.
