Upload Open Graph Images

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.

    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? :)

    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.
