Preguntas frecuentes

Why the shortcode is not working and refreshing?

It works in all cases. The possible problem is that you are not using ‘http’ or ‘https’ protocols.

Why there is no thumbnail on Google Searches?

The Google bots take sometime to refresh the contents. I depends on your site status. I might take a day or a month.

Why I shows-up generating the preview image on Facebook?

I may happen sometime because Facebook script is delicate and ‘sometimes’ time-out before the rendering (seen on slow connections).
