    Embedding YouTube, Slideshare, Twitter works well. Only when I try to embed a Facebook post I only get the text, not the image. How can I fix this?

    Hi Hugo,
    For oembed, we use WordPress’s core infra. It does not support Facebook.

    Sorry, I am correcting my previous answer by editing here.

    It seems WordPress does support oembed from Facebook. Can you please provide me a link and I can check.

    Regards

    Thank you.

    The problem is with your theme or site setup. Try posting normal text “hello” and see. It does not appear and you need to refresh it to appear.

    Thanks, this helps.
    But I switched to default theme with no effect; I still need to refresh. Any suggestions to debug this?

    You are welcome.

    It is most probably a caching issue or some plugin conflict. Try disabling caching plugin and then testing and after that others.
