hi,

could someone help me with my website? When i share my website on social media with a link i want the preview image to be the image i have choosen on top of the website. Im having an issue with a custom page i created on my store to preview the featured image when sharing on platforms like facebook. Im assuming something would be needed to be changed with the theme code. Is there anyone that knows how to fix this?

Thank You, will this image then apply on every page? like if i share the home page does this image also appear? If so do you know a way to have a specific image when a specific page is shared?

Hi @dilaraucar

This is a default image of your store and will be shared whenever you share your store homepage.

If you share a particular product url with someone, then that product will be shared.
