Set your Google+ and Facebook share images


Description


Setting your own text and images for shares is easy. Take a look at the HTML below.

Important Note: Facebook doesn't copy your image to their servers when a share happens. This means you'll need to put your share image some place where it won't be deleted, or else all the shares using that image will be affected.

Usage


Place the following in your head block.
<!-- Set your Facebook/Google+ Share, Like, or Recommend Image -->
<link rel="image_src" href="http://example.com/my_image.jpg" />

<!-- Set your Facebook/Google+ Share Text -->
<meta name="description" content="This is some text that describes the link being shared!" />
