  • This post demonstrates a minimal working example.

Adding your own social image to a post

This post is an example of how to add a custom open graph social image, also known as an OG image, to a blog post. By adding the optional ogImage property to the frontmatter of a post, you opt out of satori automatically generating an image for this page.

If you open this markdown file src/content/blog/social-image.md you’ll see the ogImage property set to an image which lives in the public folder1.

ogImage: "/social-card.png"
