Im having issues with my project right now regarding linkedin share. The image(thumbnail) doesnt showed up.

My question is, does the url change could also affect?

For example i added the og tags like this: https://domain_name.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/2_About-Team-Photo_New-1.jpg

but when i open up the source code the url was change to: https://d2gkdq5vdbd74s.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/2_About-Team-Photo_New-1.jpg

Does this change affect the Linkedin Share?

By the way the facebook share has no issues at all.

Please help me. Thank you.

Reggards, gbl

My hunch is that your page doesn't have the Open Graph prefix on its or tag. 

<html lang="en-US" prefix="og: http://ogp.me/ns# fb: http://ogp.me/ns/fb# website: http://ogp.me/ns/website#">

I believe I've come across that as an issue with LinkedIn shares in the past. As for the URL change, that shouldn't impact it. I believe I've used images from different domains successfully in the past for Open Graph. Do you have a plugin enabled that might be syncing your assets to CloudFront or S3? That might be the cause of that.

I wrote a plugin a while back that might save you some hassle with all of this -- it comprehensively and intelligently adds all of OG tags needed, including the prefix, and allows you to customize that data as you need per page or globally (if you're a developer, you can do this all programmatically with some built-in filters. It also lacks the confusing configuration and bloat of other 'do it all' plugins, which is one of the main reasons I built it. You should check out:
