For sharing across networks please note:
-
Changes will usually be reflected with the next automatic update of your paper
-
Some services can take up to 7 days before presenting your new image. This is due to the expiration set on their image cache and we unfortunately can't influence this.
-
If you paste your URL into a status update field, depending on the social platform you are on, you may need to toggle between the gray standard P and your cover image. Once you select the cover image and save, it will be displayed.
-
If you are sharing your paper via the standard share icons found under the SHARE tab, (such as Twitter, G+, FB) your thumbnail will be automatically identified and displayed.
