For Blog Admins: How To Fix Image Thumbnail Not Showing On Whatsapp
Category: How Tos
So I have been having this problem for almost a week now. I started noticing this after I edited some codes in my template. I updated Facebook comment codes and since then, all posts I put on Whatsapp stopped displaying thumbnails on Whatsapp.
I tried removing most of the new codes but nothing changed. It looked like I would no longer be able to have thumbnails from my posts displayed on Whatsapp.

This became very worrisome for me, as you can agree with me that thumbnails on Whatsapp posts usually give posts more beauty and most people are likely to click through your post because of the images displayed.
And so I kept researching to see what the problem could be, and today I was able to resolve it, and decided to put out this post for those who may need it.

Sometimes, blog administrators and managers encounter issues relating to post thumbnails/image not showing on whatsapp, especially when they edit their blog templates or switch to anew templates.
I want to share with you how I was able to resolve mine.
Go to your blogger dashboard, then Theme, click on Edit Html, your blog template html codes will be displayed.
Use Ctrl+A to highlight the codes, and use Ctrl+F, to find this code <head>
Paste this code at the end of the <head> code;

<b:if cond='data:blog.postImageUrl'> <meta expr:content='data:blog.postImageUrl' property='og:image'/> <b:else/> <b:if cond='data:blog.postImageThumbnailUrl'> <meta expr:content='data:blog.postImageThumbnailUrl' property='og:image'/> </b:if></b:if>
Then use the same method to search for the <body> code and paste the code below within the <body> code

Or you can use the code below to achieve the same purpose;
<link itemprop="thumbnailUrl" href="url_image"> <span itemprop="thumbnail" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ImageObject"> <link itemprop="url" href="url_image"> </span>
Then save. Once this is done, you will start seeing thumbnails in your Whatsapp posts.
