    Hello! I am trying to set a custom image for my Facebook social cards when sharing my website.
    So when I go to WordPressAdmin dashboard > Yoast SEO > Social > Facebook, my page looks like this:
    https://i.imgfly.me/jfFa0z.png

    And I think it’s supposed to look like this:
    https://yoast.com/app/uploads/2020/04/fb-frontpage-settings.png

    That’s according to an article I was reading here: https://yoast.com/help/custom-open-graph-tags/#:~:text=you%20additional%20options.-,Click%20on%20’Social’.,Click%20’Save%20Changes’.

    I think this ‘Upload Image’ thing is where the problem is. It wants me to use an image in my gallery that I have for my site images, and when I upload the one I want, it doesn’t go through to the og:image code on the Facebook Sharing Debugger. That og:image code remains a default image from the homepage of the site, not the custom image I want to use or uploaded in the Social section.

    I assume it’s not supposed to have this option. From what I’m seeing online, it should be an empty field I can type in and paste the image link in. As it is currently, I can ONLY upload from my website gallery and there are no other custom fields like description, etc.

    Please help!
