Why doesn't my social media post show an image with it?

While SchoolStatus does automatically fill out what we can of social metadata for modules. For example, in news articles, if there is a featured image, SchoolStatus goes ahead and sets this as the primary image to be used when shared with social media.  You can then choose to use the social metadata fields to override these, but since there is already a featured image, there isn't usually a case when the user wants to do this.
