I have 5 currently, Akismet, All In One SEO Pack, SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam, SumoMe and
Weaver II Theme Extras. In the review of my website health it says that I have too many

Too many plugins will slow down your website. You want it running as fast as possible. Therefore I advice you to activate only essential plugins. The plugins I use are Akismet, All in one SEO, Custom Comment form title, Google XML sitemap, Social media feather, and WP Edit.

Make sure you have the best back up plugin

Caisaki has you dialed in.

I try to minimize my plugins to the basics: SpamShield and AIO SEO Pack. The only additional ones I have are the necessary genesis theme plugins, a total of 7 and my plugin score is at 90%. These affect page speed load.

Thanks for you comment, I'm going to gather a lot of ideas and make some changes!

Hi all! Silly quuestion of the day. I am trying to set a post with a featured photo so I can post it to FaceBook and for some reason it won't load as a feature photo. I got one

Investigate the photo size or the type of document (gif, jpeg, etc.). It might make a difference.

Thank you MKearns, I changed the size and now it loads. Still can't figure out wy it wont post to FaceBook with the picture on the post. It's showing the home page piicture. Any thoughts?

Diana, the FB share can be a little stubborn, you might want to review this...

Thank you Pj. Do you have any idea why wordpress won't change the photo to a featured photo when I make that selection? I think if I can make the photo a featured photo, it will post on FB. I appreciate you help.
Diana

Do you have the Featured Photo selected on the right side of the post?
If so, the All-in-One plugin should use it IF you set it up per the link I shared above. I have to do it quite specifically per those instructions or it won't share out correctly. It's not so much WordPress more than it is the FB Share mechanism.

Pj, Thanks for the suggestions. I tried all of your suggestions, followed the instructions and here's what happens. The FB post appears on FB with the home page photo but when you click the post is appears with the featured image. I am so frustrated! Checked the debug button and of course they are talking about stuff that's way above my understanding. Time to step away from the computer.
