    I’m testing social sharing (to Pinterest) of my blog post using Gillion Theme. It is pulling in my company logo instead of the “featured image” of the post.  I don’t see a way to control this in the theme settings.  Can you help?  I want the sharing to use the “featured image” rather than my logo.

    Hi there,

     

    In most cases, the SEO optimization plugin is the one doing that.

     

    Maybe you can disable it for a moment and see if the issue goes away. If, yes then you will need to adjust the SEO optimization plugin options.

    That didn’t seem to fix the problem.  I deactivated any SEO optimization plugins and created a new “test post” account with a featured image and it still pulled in the logo instead of the featured image when I attempted to share it (from the post page).

    I notice on the Gillion Theme—foodie demo (HERE), if you look at the blog posts and try to share it does the same thing—shares the “Gillion Foodie Cooking Blog” logo instead of the featured image, so seems to be something to do with the theme settings (?).

    Hi there,

     

    Interesting, we just tested it in our other testing site and it was working fine.

    Just for testing purposes, can you please install Yoast SEO and see if it works after activating it?

     

    Best regards,
