I can not achieve that when sharing a news on social networks, the main image of the news is seen. Could you tell me how to do it?

Hello,

When you create or edit a post or a page you can set a featured image => https://www.screencast.com/t/ymIXqkWcRH and also you can write a description right there => https://www.screencast.com/t/ffjoaFPx and set like the featured image after that you need to publish or update.
Also, make sure that you have og image set, usually, for this, we recommended to use the SEO Yoast plugin (our theme doesn’t have the option for on image).
Also, you can check the og image using this tool => https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/
To share a post with a featured image, please follow this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/facebook-share/ use SEO Yoast (in this guide you will know how to display the og image using Yoast plugin).

Hope this helps you!

Thank you!

Hola Anamaría gracias por la respuesta. Pero sigo sin poder hacer ver la imagen del posteo al compartirla en redes sociales. Hice cada uno de los pasos que me indicaste, incluso configurando Yoast SEO. Podrias ver como se ve compartiendo cualquier noticia de http://www.2804informa.com.ar

Hi,

I see that you have og:image therefore the featured image should work in WhatsApp -> https://i.imgur.com/SbbD6VZ.png -> https://i.imgur.com/Ez37jhA.png also the og image need to be under 300kb -> https://i.imgur.com/m8W2iJA.png -> https://theme.co/forum/t/whatsapp-share-thumbnail-not-showing/52140
Also, I just checked the featured image is fine and for Telegram => https://www.screencast.com/t/2TZbX34Fpllr

Thank you!
