How can I change the open graph image displayed when sharing my Webflow website via chat or social media?

To change the Open Graph image displayed when sharing your Webflow website via chat or social media, you'll need to update the OG (Open Graph) Settings in your Webflow project. Here's how you can do it:

1. Open your Webflow project in the Designer.
2. In the top-left corner, click on the project name to access the project settings.
3. From the project settings panel on the right, click on the "SEO" tab.
4. Scroll down to the "Open Graph" section.
5. You'll see an input field labeled "Default OG Image".
6. Click on the "Select Image" button next to the input field and choose the image you want to use as the Open Graph image. Make sure the image is optimized for social media sharing (preferably with dimensions around 1200x630 pixels).
7. Once you've selected the image, click on the "Save" button at the top-right corner of the Designer.

Now, when you share your Webflow website's URL on chat or social media platforms, the specified Open Graph image will be displayed as the thumbnail.

It's important to note that most social media platforms cache the OG image, so it may take some time for the new image to appear when sharing your website. If you need to update the OG image immediately, you can use tools like the Facebook Sharing Debugger or the Twitter Card Validator to force a refresh of the OG image cache for the specific URL.

Also, remember that some platforms may prioritize the OG image set in the sharing content (e.g., when you share a specific page or blog post) over the default OG image. So, if you have individual OG settings for specific pages, make sure to customize them accordingly.

By following these steps, you can easily change the Open Graph image displayed when sharing your Webflow website via chat or social media.
