I like the way this works, and images in social shares are very effective.

However, I find that many first posts in topics don’t include images, so I have to massage my posts on Twitter and Facebook to include an image. This is a) fiddly and b) only benefits my social media shares and not other peoples’

I’d really appreciate a new feature allowing mods/admins to upload an image to assign to a topic for the purposes of social shares.

We could go in and edit people’s posts to include an image, but I have found people can take issue with the content of their posts being edited, understandably so. And they may not understand why their posts are being edited to include an image.
