WhatsApp reads standard Open Graph tags — og:title, og:description, and og:image — from the page's HTML head. There is no WhatsApp-specific tag set, so a page that previews well elsewhere usually previews on WhatsApp too.
The preview is generated on the sender's phone at the moment the URL is pasted, before the message is sent, and is then attached to the message. Recipients see whatever the sender's device fetched — so if the sender pasted the link while your tags were still wrong, that stale card is what the whole group sees.
Image handling is the main WhatsApp-specific trap. For most links WhatsApp shows a small square thumbnail cropped from the centre of og:image, so an image with the subject or text at the edges loses it. Very small images are skipped entirely: og:image should be at least about 300 pixels wide, and keeping the file compact (well under a megabyte) avoids the preview silently dropping the image on slow connections.
WhatsApp fetches pages with its own user agent (it identifies itself as WhatsApp). Bot-protection rules or CDN firewalls that block unknown user agents return an error page to it and the preview comes back with no image, or nothing at all — check that the URL returns a 200 to non-browser clients.
There is no public WhatsApp debugger and previews are cached per device. To force a fresh fetch after fixing tags, append a throwaway query parameter (for example ?v=2) so the URL is treated as new, or paste the link again after the fix has propagated.
Check the card once before a link goes out to a WhatsApp community — the sender's first paste is what everyone sees.
Confirm the centre of og:image survives the small square thumbnail WhatsApp uses on most links.
Spot og:image tags that are too small, too heavy, or served from a host that blocks WhatsApp's user agent.
