Hi,

Although I am not facing any issue with my facebook preview, I am having problems with the thumbnail not showing when I share my post via whatsapp.  
Post link:

> **[Trekking solo to Deorital-Chopta-Chandrashila summit! - The Raw Traveller](https://www.therawtraveller.com/my-treks/trekking-solo-to-deorital-chopta-chandrashila-summit/)**
>
> Charming lake and magnificent summit views;a must do trek near Delhi, this is an account of Trekking solo to Deorital-Chopta-Chandrashila summit!

I have added the code \<meta property=“og:image” content=“”/\> to the theme header file but it doesn’t work.

Please help.  
It will be much appreciated. Thank you!

Hey there,  
I hope you’re doing well today

I recommend that you install and configure the plugin[(https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/) To improve the SEO of your website and also improve the way your posts will be shared.

Best Regards,  
Support

You are having multiple og:image tags in your site as shown in the attached screenshot so please try removing og:image tag you have added in the theme header file.
