When I link to my website on Facebook a thumbnail comes up but it is not the thumbnail I want to come up. How do I change the thumbnail. It shows the image on the object debugger

How do I change the image?
I have seen similar posts but want to no a simple solution for the issue? Can it be done on Facebook no coding involved?

Click the “upload image” link under the thumbnail. Select an image from your computer. It's way more visually appealing! And when others hit “share” on your post, the engaging photo is shared along with the LINK to the article or action page!
you can add into <head></head>
this tag <link rel="image_src" href="http://URL-TO-YOUR-IMAGE" / >
OR change <html> tag to
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:og="http://ogp.me/ns#"
xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml">
and add into tag <head></head>
this tag
<meta property="og:image" content="http://URL-TO-YOUR-IMAGE" />
Don`t forget to test your link using facebook debug tool

I was having the same issue last night, and I got this solution from some website.
Facebook saves your cache thumbnail. The thumbnail will not change even if you delete the image from your server. But Facebook allows you to refresh by using fbrefresh
I hope this helps.
