Hello! I’m having issues producing an image when trying to post the link on Twitter and Linkedin. I end up getting these images instead. We have it set up with our logo in the metadata, but it isn’t showing up. How do I fix it so the image we want shows up? [Screenshot 2025-02-13 at 4.22.49 PM] TIA!

[Screenshot 2025-02-13 at 4.22.33 PM] This one is from Linkedin

[image] Zoo Community Forum A place for the community to help each other learn how to use the Zoo tools and API. It works here - is this the image you expect?

It is! But it’s not the image that shows up for Twitter or Linkedin.

The opengraph tester shows us everything should be fine: Zoo Community Forum and expects the following results to show on Twitter and LinkedIn: [The image displays a live preview showing various social media platform icons for "Zoo" alongside text describing the Zoo Community Forum on community.zoo.dev. (Captioned by AI)] The problem does not seem to be in the data Discourse is returning. Assuming of course, that Twitter/LinkedIn receive this data. I would guess the problem is that Cloudflare is blocking the request from Twitter/LinkedIn that crawls the site to generate the preview.

Ahh I see - so seems like there’s nothing else I can do on my end? Thank you for your help!

Not on the Discourse side, I believe. The next step would be testing this assumption. Make sure you’ve followed the Cloudflare Guide. Disabling Cloudflare temporarily may help, but Twitter/LinkedIn might cache their results and this may not have immediate effect. Access logs might have more information. Posting on Cloudflare’s Community about this may help. I note that https://community.cloudflare.com/ does appear properly on Twitter/LinkedIn, for what it’s worth, so evidently they’ve made this work.

Okay so the issue is not Discourse’s image link previews in topics

But your forum Link’s display on platforms like Twitter/KunkedIn?
