Please allow for an upload of an Open Graph image from the page settings panel.
Currently I have a page to host pages Open Graph images (as per this advice) and this workaround is time consuming.
Social sharing is of high impact to all of my clients - social channel drives a significant number of leads, signups and sales, so being able to rapidly test and optimise the OG image is high impact stuff for myself and my clients.

Hey I just noticed this wishlist item...
I kind of have a small solution for this, I didnt directly try and solve this but I have built an option to add a button to have the same open graph image url as your home page... this is an interesting wishlist item, I might go about building it... you can checkout this site to learn about my chrome extension for webflow developers which has some other features too

It's a small thing, but super annoying on every project.
Ideally, we'd have the option to:
Upload a new image file for a specific page.
Select an image file from the assets directory for a specific page.
Globally select a default asset for every page (which can then be overridden per page)
You could also use the custom code section to inject a dynamic image url into the og image meta and auto-generate open graph images with a tool like Abyssale

Although this should be implemented in Webflow as native feature beacuse it's really a low effort fix (you can even put a upload button on the Open Graph field or even a Template Files upload in project settings).
Workaround For Designers: You can put your image in dropbox, copy the public link and switch ?dl=0 for ?raw=1 . That's it.
Embarassing handing over a site to a client, and having them comeback with 'where do I host the open graph imagery'.
This should be a priority. The last thing I want to do is be responsible for uploading the clients content in a CMS i'm providing them. :(
Ye this is an issue every time I launch a new site. I have to get the client to send me all the OG images for me to upload them to Assets and then copy-paste in the URLs. Uploading an image to this field from the Editor seems like a very trivial development task - got 10 minutes @webflow to help us out? :)
been a while since this was requested, it seems so easy!!
or, should be able to select from uploaded assets...
I agree! As a designer, I need to be able to select an Open Graph image for a page directly without having to cut and paste the URL.
I think you can just upload the image to your sites assets. Then click the little gear icon and next to the file name there is a button that opens the image in a new tab. Just copy the url and use it in the open graph image settings.
Of course it would be more easy to just have a upload button next to the open graph image setting :)
true true, it's copy and paste of export urls right now, if you don't host with webflow.
