Question Help with featured image in WordPress
Hello
I am having the hardest time trying to figure out how to manage images in my WordPress blog.

I'm OK with inserting images into the blog post, but I am baffled as to why a different image (from a previous post) shows up when I link my blog post on my Facebook page.

I am going crazy and have wasted so much time this morning trying to figure this out. Thank you so much for any help with this. I really, really appreciate it.

I figured it out -- not even sure what I did, but somehow I did fix 'er up so that my images correlate with my posts. Huh?

Each post has the option to have a featured image. I believe that is the image used in thumbnail representations of the post, as well as a front-page slider, if you have one.

Maybe you hadn't set a featured image yet on those posts? Just a thought.

Where do I set a featured image? Would this apply on an autofeed via Networked Blogs? I have the same generic pic that feeds & it is driving me crazy.

When I'm editing a page, it shows as the lowest widget on the right-hand side, titled "Featured Image". If you don't see it, you may need to click "Screen Options" at the top of the screen and turn it on.

Thanks for the info. I'll see if I can find it.
