OG Image associated with blog article

We've noticed that when sharing the link to the easy blog article by text message, it pulls in an image of the author profile, and generic profile, and does not pull in the main image for the article. We've already tested the site and can confirm that this is only happening with easy blog articles, not other native Joomla articles on the website.

I've attached an image as evidence of what this looks like.

When using the Google dev inspect tool, I see a section added to the Easyblog articles in the head script that is not there with the native Joomla articles. Within this head script, we can see that the author image and author avatar are both being pulled in addition to the main article image. Is there a place in the Easyblog settings where this can be adjusted?

That's strange, your article page rendered 7 times og:image metadata.

I suspect you have installed some of the 3rd party plugins also render the opengraph metadata on the article page as well so this is why it renders multiples og:image metadata tag.

Can you activate your site backend user account because I can't log in from your site backend, this is what I hit now:

Hello, we did find that our other plugin, Shack OpenGraph, was still enabled on the Easy Blog articles. Once we disabled this, everything corrected itself. Thank you for your insight into what was going on.
