I've tried everything for this website that I can think of.

No matter what combination I try, the facebook image will not show up when I share this site's homepage.
I've installed plugins and used different article types (Joomla Article, Zoo).
I've added facebook opengraph tags manually and still nothing.
But here's the funny thing. I only have this problem on the home page.

All internal pages with facebook like buttons pull the image on that page with no problem.

Pinterest works fine on the home page.
It's just facebook likes don't pull the image.

Can you help me please?

Hi

The most important thing is what type You chave set for homepage menu item. Normaly people set there feautured articles, but this is confusing not only for facebook, but google too. I've leared a trick to show a single article there. Kind of "Welcome" or something like that. Than facebook will take this article to opengraph parameters.

Yes, I've tried this already.
I made the homepage a regular page and nothing.

No problem. I think it was one of the plugins, becuase the same image is in meta og:image.
