Hey all! I'm a bit confused on how to add an image preview to links. For example, if I post a link to a page on discord, it displays like this:

I'd like it to look something like this instead:

Any tips? Thanks!

I don't think you can control it

Where is the image preview you want to generate? Discussions? The wiki? You are missing much info that prevents people from helping you.

@Fandyllic Super sorry! I'm really new to all of this. The image preview would be for a character page. As far as I'm aware, the page I set up and the Chewbacca page example are set up very similarly (with an info box to the right side of the page). The image would be on that page, but I'm not sure if it has to be specified elsewhere as a setting.

A link to a page where you want to do this would help. You seem to be talking about wiki pages, but the link preview functionality you have screenshots of only exists in Discussions.

So again I ask... where do you want this link preview to show up?

They said it was on Discord. I see that the page on the ImagineFun wiki was created within the last 24 hours. It is possible that whatever Discord looks at to get the image is cached and that the cache hasn't updated yet. Give it a few days and see if the image shows up then.

Edit: Just a test to see what shows here.
