I am migrating from Fluxbb to WPforo.  I have the forum setup, but when I share posts to social media, the post shows the admin avatar as the picture (the data showed is the first sentence or 2 of the post, which is great).  I have purchased all of the wpforo add ons, was hoping pictures posted in the topic would show, or be an option.  Even if the actual topic is posted by someone other than admin, the admin avatar shows.

Love the forum so far, hoping this is a simple fix.

Hi fastpitchonline,

Good point. This is wpForo SEO  Open Graph part. We'll add this in next version release. At the Moment wpForo SEO Open Graph doesn't include this meta tag, this is the only reason. We'll add it in next version:

<meta property=”og:image” content=”topic-image-url” />

Thanks Robert, I know enough to be dangerous, can I add that code to make it work now?  If so, where exactly do I add?  Thanks in advance!

I'm sorry but not, it requires lots of codding, it should detect images and find from the first post than filter and add in meta tag. It's not so easy task as it looks.
