  Hi,

  Hope someone can help with this matter.

  I know how to set an featured image to the site.

  But what I want to do is:

  Once a post is written up and it has several images in the post, I want there to be an option where I (the writer) can choose from those images to be the image that is shared when someone clicks the SHARE buttons for social media.

  Does anyone know how to do this? I know there is a way but I’m unsure if it is a plugin (Blog2social perhaps) to be added or whether its a setting that can be changed in wordpress. Any help greatly appreciated.

  Hi there, could you send a link to the site you’re having trouble with? For sites on our servers, typically the featured image will be the shared image, but you can use plugins to specify another option if your plan supports it.

  Also, please note these forums are for the sites hosted and managed here at WordPress.com, vs using the free WordPress software with another host. If you’re not sure about your site, send a link and we can point you in the right direction.
