Default OpenGraph / share image doesn’t work???

  • Hello,

    Thank you so much for getting in touch.

    The default social sharing image shows up only when:
    1. You have not uploaded any featured image to a post
    2. You are not using even a single image inside the post
    3. You have not used any image in the social tab:

    If any of these are true, then that image will be used instead of the default social image. If you wish to force the use of default social image, please paste this code in your theme’s functions.php file:

    add_filter('rank_math/opengraph/pre_set_content_image', function() {
    	return true;
    });

    Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

    Thanks for the reply. I’ll use this code for now, but may I suggest making this a standard option in the future? My pages do not have featured images set, so the plugin is clearly using the first available image. Using random images by default as social media featured images will often display blurry icons, and other small unimportant images. You also lose the opportunity to have text on the image for advertising purpose (why we share on social media.)

    Lastly, I design for others. I’m almost certain my clients won’t be designing and adding featured images to their new pages.

    Glad that helped.

    I’ll forward your suggestion to our dev tem.
