 * Hello, if I update the WP featured image for a post that has already been shared
   on social media, will the new featured image be relected in social media, say
   in Facebook? Or do I have to re-share the wp post?

 * Hello,
 * Thank you for reaching out.
 * Please be so kind as to re-share your post if you want to change the image since
   updating your post won’t have any influence on your already shared posts.
 * Please be aware that if you already shared a link post with image A and share
   it again with image B, it could take some time until the social networks recognize
   the change of your image because they do check the metadata (open graph tags)
   in larger intervals. This means they still could display image A when sharing
   the same link again.
