How Do I Change Social Sharing Images in WordPress?
Social media is a great way to connect with friends and family, and share your thoughts and experiences. But if your images aren’t sharing well, you may not be getting the most out of your social media presence.
In this article, we’ll show you how to change social sharing images in WordPress.
First, you’ll need to decide what type of image you want to use as your social sharing image. There are a few different options available to you.
You can use a stock photo, one of your blog posts, or a photo you’ve taken yourself.
To use a stock photo, you’ll first need to find a suitable image. WordPress has a built-in search function, so you can easily find a suitable image.
Once you’ve found the image, you’ll need to copy the URL of the image into the “Social Media Image” field in your WordPress dashboard.
To use one of your blog posts as your social sharing image, you’ll first need to copy the URL of the post into the “Social Media Image” field in your WordPress dashboard. You can then choose to use the post’s original content as the social sharing text, or you can use a custom social sharing text template.
To use a photo you’ve taken yourself, you’ll first need to upload the photo to your WordPress site. Once the photo is uploaded, you’ll need to copy the URL of the photo into the “Social Media Image” field in your WordPress dashboard.
You can then choose to use the photo’s original content as the social sharing text, or you can use a custom social sharing text template.
Once you’ve decided on the type of image you want to use as your social sharing image, you’ll need to share the image on your social media accounts. To share the image on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram, you’ll first need to copy the image’s URL into the respective social media platform’s sharing field.
Once you’ve shared the image, you’ll need to wait for your followers to share the image. You can check how many people have shared the image by clicking the “Share” button on the image’s social media platform.
Once the image has been shared, you can view the image’s stats on your social media platform. You can see the number of shares, likes, and comments the image has received.
You can also use the stats to determine whether or not the image was successful in reaching your followers.
If you’re not happy with the social sharing image that WordPress is using, you can customize the image using the WordPress image editor. To do this, you’ll first need to open the image in the image editor and change the social sharing image URL.
You can also change the social sharing text, if you’d like.
Once you’ve customized the image, you’ll need to save the image and share it again. You can also use the image editor to change the image’s width and height, if you’d like.
Finally, if you’d like to add a border to the social sharing image, you can use the WordPress border editor to add a border. To do this, you’ll first need to open the image in the border editor and change the social sharing image URL.
So there you have it – how to change social sharing images in WordPress. If you’re not happy with the image WordPress is using, you can customize it to make it more shareable.
