storylaine Posted March 14, 2023 Posted March 14, 2023 I just completely rebranded my website and when I go to it everything looks right but if I copy the url and send it to someone the link that pops up has my old logo image. I have attached picture below of my current website and a picture of what happens when I send a link to it. The photograph of the dog used to be our logo but I have changed it everywhere and cannot figure out what is happening. davidbruce 1
paul2009 Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 You can change this image in Design > Social Sharing. Click REPLACE and upload a new one 🙂. When you add a social sharing image, Squarespace adds something called an Open Graph meta tag. It's a small snippet of code that asks third parties to preview the specified image when you share a link to your website. Currently, your site is using the full colour image shown in your screenshot (shown below for reference): <meta property="og:image" content="http://static1.squarespace.com/static/6081e58df881380ea896446d/t/608da450bc3dfe7e98e0d4e7/1619895388509/99544663-5E1E-47F9-ACA8-7ECA5539AF5B.jpg?format=1500w"/> Did this help?

storylaine Posted March 16, 2023 Author Posted March 16, 2023 I just did what you said but there was no picture to replace it just said add a social sharing image so I added our logo but it is still sending the old image
storylaine Posted March 16, 2023 Author Posted March 16, 2023 like if I texted you a link to my website it comes across with that old image.
storylaine Posted March 17, 2023 Author Posted March 17, 2023 so… weird thing is I changed it where you said and also on a different setting but now it shows correct in a text message but if I put the link in messenger it still shows that old one.

It's a common problem and I've heard about it a lot this week. Go to this link and enter your URL and hit debug. May take a bit but it should work. https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/ Sayre Design Site: https://www.stregaconsulting.com Author Coordinates: https://bio.site/sayreambrosio Italian Journey: https://bio.site/ambrosiosjrnyhm
Parde Posted December 21, 2023 Posted December 21, 2023 I figured out how to change this, if you’re still looking for a solution. Click on your home page to make changes. You will see edit site header. The click on site title & logo. Change both the site logo and mobile logo.
sculpt3d Posted January 22 Posted January 22 I have this problem currently using Linkedin, that it is posting an old image. I have deleted this image from the asset library in fact, and everything looks good in the Homepage social options. The image should no longer say GRAV in the top right corner. See here: But this is showing. I have deleted my cache and tried again, so it's somewhere on the site I guess...
katysimmons Posted February 23 Posted February 23 This is happening to me too. Updated my site logo and it still shows the wrong image.
sssss Posted March 13 Posted March 13 I'm glad to see I'm not the only one running into this; any solution is appreciated
Airin Posted May 16 Posted May 16 Just got off of chat with Squarespace: here is how you fix the social image Thanks for your patience. So I'm seeing that the image in your text message is on your homepage's social sharing settings. To change this, click Website > Pages > Hover over your homepage > Click the settings icon > Select the Social Sharing Tab > Click remove image > Add a new image. For your reference, here's a screenshot of this on your site: https://share.squarespace.com/xQuoDd5R BMA210 1
BMA210 Posted August 8 Posted August 8 (edited) What Airin said fixed it. Thank you! Edited August 8 by BMA210
