Change preview image for a post
A picture is worth 1000 words! Therefore, the perfect picture must represent each post on your padlet. - Say that three times really fast.
You're making a padlet full of the world's tastiest treats and you link a website to one of your posts. Everything else on the padlet looks decadent and delicious and then your post is published -- but not with the perfectly carved out dessert picture you'd imagined -- but a picture of the PDF with the recipe on it instead. Boo! How do you change it?
How do you go from this? | To this? |
Instead of posting the link, upload your preferred image as an attachment. To do this, follow these steps:
- Click the (+) button in the bottom-right corner of the padlet to create a post.
- Click the three-dot ellipsis button (...) for more options in the post modal and then click Upload to upload your image as an attachment.
- In the post body, paste the link or create a hyperlink (copy link > type the text you want displayed on your post > highlight the text > click the chain icon > paste link).
Now, you can have the perfect image for your perfect post!
