og:image tag using default image and not post image

This code doesn’t help to get the first image as the og:image if there is no Facebook image set. I still get the default image placed… but there is a content image.

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

However, if this would work, the next question is what happens if there is a set Facebook picture!? The content picture should only be used as the second option!

Thanks! I’m happy with every solution… doesn’t matter if there is an option in the settings or I need to update the functions.php…. most important is a quick solution 😉

Same with me… In the past first conttent image was used, now I can’t find an example where it is used (but havend checked much post, just saw many without using it)

Hi Patrik,

you missed the default image in your list. This will be bused before 3) and MUST BE after 3)

Check this post: https://esser.me/what-is-a-cx-methodology-and-a-cx-strategy/

circle2.png is the default image which should only be used if 1), 2) and 3) is not available. In this link the strategy-835×362.jpg should be the og:image
If I delete the default image, then the strategy-835×362.jpg will be used… but I need the default image as afallback if there is no other image available.

For sure, I can go and set a Facebook image post by post… but I can’t do this for hundreds of posts. If this is realy needed, I need to switch back to Yoast.

Best
Sven

Looks like we have a bit different but overlapping issues with the og:image
