P.s. I have many other questions asked in other posts, why noone is answering them?

In the edit screen of you post scroll down to Yoast and click the Sharing icon (three dots connected) and set it there.

RikardMay 3, 2016 at 8:07 pm #626717as I see it is for social media sharing. I ave changed the picture there, I think it will take time.

Unfortunately I was not able to change the preview picture this way…May 8, 2016 at 8:41 pm #628904Hi,
Please debug the URL in question using the facebook opengraph debug tool https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/
then try this plugin to setup opengraph https://wordpress.org/plugins/opengraph/ or you can do this in Yoast SEO plugin as well.
If none of it work let us know a precise link to the webpage and check the link in private for more info.
Best regards,
VinayMay 18, 2016 at 10:52 pm #634812sorry, but what does it have to do with Facebook?
May 20, 2016 at 3:26 am #635646Hey!
The image and site infos like title, date etc are set via opengraph meta. Facebook and other social media sites or tools use this info in their platforms when sharing posts from a site. However, we’re not sure if this info is used by skype. Could you please provide a link to the post seen in the screenshot? Post the login details here so that we can check the markup.

Did you try the plugin that we suggested previously? We checked the home page and the featured image is not set: https://platinum-sun.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=129&action=edit
