Help Give Your Links a Leg up on Social Media

Wouldn’t it be nice if every time a link from your site got shared on Facebook, X and LinkedIn it generated a snazzy link preview like it does for news stories and announcement pages? Good news! This feature is now available for every page type in Cascade, and you have the ability to add certain features that help you customize the appearance of the link preview and draw more attention to your posts.

Now, anytime someone shares a link to a page on your site, the link preview will pull in an image, the page title and a brief summary. You can customize your link preview by adding a social media thumbnail to your page and filling in the summary field.
