# How to Fix an Old Facebook Preview for Your Website

Why Facebook can show an old photo, title or description when you share a page from your website, and how to make it show the new one.

When you share a link on Facebook, it shows a preview with a photo, a title and a short description. Facebook saves that preview the first time someone shares the link. If you change the page later, Facebook can keep showing the old version until you ask it to look again.

## Before you start

Check the page has the photo, title and description you want Facebook to use. You can set them for any page or blog post. See [How to set custom Facebook preview images](/spark-editor/spark-editor/articles-5046684-how-to-set-custom-facebook-preview-images.md).

{% hint style="info" %}
If you're replacing a photo, upload it as a new image instead of replacing the old file. Facebook saves photos by their web address, so a new upload makes sure it picks up the change.
{% endhint %}

## Ask Facebook to update the preview

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Open the Sharing Debugger

Go to Facebook's [Sharing Debugger](https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/) and log in to Facebook.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Enter the page address

Paste the page's full public address, exactly as you share it (not a link from your editor or dashboard), and click **Debug**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Scrape again

Click **Scrape Again**. Check the preview it shows has the right photo, title and description.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Share it again

Make a new post with the link. The new preview shows on new posts. Posts you already shared may keep the old one.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Common Questions

<details>

<summary>The debugger shows the new preview, but my post still shows the old one.</summary>

Make a new post instead of editing an old one, and check you're sharing the exact same address you entered in the debugger.

</details>

<details>

<summary>The preview has no photo, or the wrong one, even after Scrape Again.</summary>

The page may not have a Facebook preview image set. Add one, upload it as a new image, click **Update**, then **Scrape Again**. If it still doesn't show, email <support@agentfire.com> with the page address and the photo you want, and we'll check it.
