P.S. dev means development version
Facebook sharing always showing author avatar's picture for first image, but Facebook find the second one , which is the one inside the post content (the right one).
Example :
BUT with automatic sharing service like IFTTT it take the first image of course, it's a problem.
How to resolve it please ?
same problem
I would also add that there is no facebook embed for nodebb
that is, the inverse case, if you want to share some facebook in nodebb you can not
Iframely has Facebook embedding IIRC
for Iframely you have to pay?
Is there nothing else for face without having to worry about a payment?
You can seld-host an iframely server
Anyway, is there a solution to avoid the avatar's picture when sharing on facebook please ?

We see this too, we get either the author's pic or the ads on the sidebar.
@Yannick-Deslandes @arranka Maybe using this Facebook meta tags will help you to customize the preview (especially the og:image
meta tag which allows you to choose a custom image for the preview):
<meta property="og:url" content="http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/19/arts/international/when-great-minds-dont-think-alike.html" />
<meta property="og:type" content="article" />
<meta property="og:title" content="When Great Minds Don’t Think Alike" />
<meta property="og:description" content="How much does culture influence creative thinking?" />
<meta property="og:image" content="http://static01.nyt.com/images/2015/02/19/arts/international/19iht-btnumbers19A/19iht-btnumbers19A-facebookJumbo-v2.jpg" />
Theoretically, it will look like this:

That's not what we get. We get what you don't want. I want what you want.
