    Hello, when sharing my site via facebook I would like the homepage, location, and archive pages to have specific images. Whatever the case may be to do this I don’t want it to change how the image for listings shared displays because they do so correctly.

    As for listings and all images though it would be great to have a title and description show nicely. Right now it’s just showing the listing name and site name. It would be great if it also showed the description.

    Is there a GD friendly/safe plugin you may suggest for accomplishing this? Or is there something I can do to accomplish this manually or via GD for at least the homepage, location, and archive pages?

    Thanks for your time and any suggestions. Hope you all are having a great day!

    There are lots of 3rd party plugins for social sharing with many different options. I don’t have any particular recommendations but others might.

    What I’m specifically after is something that will, like with Supreme Theme, show a chosen image when sharing the homepage. When sharing the Supreme Theme homepage no image shows. So, I have no idea how to make an image show for the homepage. Using open graph through fb api would force an image but this would interfere with the image used for listings, which is a bad thing. I looked for 3rd party plugins but I’m not sure there’s anything for the homepages specifically. Yoast may work if I recall correctly, but I’m afraid to use Yoast or any 3rd party solutions until I have everything figured out and running good with GD.
