I'm trying to change the default thumbnail for social post sharing (blog), especially for LinkedIn.
If you go to the "News page" on my website (https://agencesherlock.fr/news/) then, if you click on a post and if you want to share the article on LinkedIn (by using the social sharing icons) there is a default picture (bird cartoon picture) that is not the one i selected for the article.
I don't know why because i have set a picture for each article and i have deleted all salient existing pictures.
Could you use a plugin like YOAST SEO to control the meta data that is added to your posts and pages. The meta data is basically the data used by LinkedIn or facebook or twitter when you share a link to a post or page. The meta data is added in form of HTML tags in the header area of your pages\ posts.
The theme does not have a feature for this so you will need to use a plugin to get better control over this. Cheers.

Can you help to fix the issue :) ?

Hello Andrew,
Thank you for your quick answer,
I have checked the YOAST plugin and added the good picture in the facebook options.
I have also integrated a specific picture for each article but i still have the wrong picture when i want to share the post on LinkedIn.
If you have another solution please let me know ;)
Cheers
