What's the "Open Graph Image" setting.
It is an important setting, it's recommended for everyone to upload an image which is larger that 200px * 200px there to be the cover image of your site. When someone shares your site on facebook, a cover image will show out, the "Open Graph Image" is for the cover image, if you don't upload an image there, your site logo will be chosen as the cover image of your site, but in most cases, logo is too small to be the cover image, which would cause no cover image or wrong cover image showing on facebook.
What's the "Facebook app ID" field.
If you don't fill in this field, a message like this will show out.
fb:app_id hasn't been included in the meta tags. Specify the app ID so that stories shared to Facebook will be properly attributed to the app. Alternatively, app_id can be set in url when open the share dialog. Otherwise, the default app id( 966242223397117 ) will be assigned.
This warning message does not interfere with the ability to share posts on Facebook but may limit your ability to use Facebook features like Insights. You can get an app_id for your site here Register and Configure an App
