    I’m trying to change the meta image (If im using the right term) so
   the image that shows once I share the link on linkedin. Tried a plugin but it
   does not seem to help. Thank you

 * Hi, pindaknabbels, this can be done by modifying the open graph meta image tag.
 * This seems like a good tutorial for you to read to edit the site preview image:

 * Please note that if you edit the code manually, like they describe in the article,
   I would only be concerned about the `<meta property="og:image...` code.

 * Hello,
 * I get what you’re trying to say and it’s called Social Meta image. If you want
   to change the social image for an Individual post, you’ll need to do that by 
   changing the **Featured Image** in your post/page editor.
 * Additional tip: To see which image appears when you’re sharing your post on social
   media, you can use the Linkedin Post Inspect tool here >> [https://www.linkedin.com/post-inspector/](https://www.linkedin.com/post-inspector/)
