Solved Is there a way to set your cover photos for articles?

[3KillerBs]

I am working on a coop page and would prefer to have a photo of the current iteration of the coop as my cover photo, but it made more logical sense to present the photos in chronological order in the actual article.

Is there a way to set the cover photo other than to put the one you like best first?

(I'm using Firefox if that makes a difference).

Been a while since I looked at any of it, but See if this helps

I'm on Safari an it's an easy decision. Up at the top right of your article there should be three little dots with a pull down menu and in that menu it says "set cover photo". Hope it works this way for you!

I'm afraid that it doesn't. "Set cover photo" is not one of my options in that menu.

I wrote it yesterday but am waiting for my DD to turn photos and measurements into plans (she does CAD for an engineering firm). I'm editing my draft article for typos and formatting and decided that I'd rather have a different cover photo but couldn't figure out how to choose one.

I have the option to set a cover photo, but not when editing the post?

So if I'm just browsing my article I have this

but when I edit my article I have this instead

Glad you figured it out! I should have been more specific about on your article page (and not while editing).
