Q: Is it possible to fix the problem of X not displaying linked OGP images?

Yes, it’s absolutely possible to display the OGP preview in X and even override the default preview, including the title, description, and image.
Here’s how:
• Once you paste your long URL into the left panel, you can either add your OGP settings or edit the existing OGP for the link.
• Occasionally, browser cache may cause the old OGP to appear. To confirm the current OGP settings, it’s a good idea to check at www.opengraph.xyz.
We hope this resolves your issue!

OSUMOEven if not overridden, general link shortening products on X will display links with OGP images.
However, this does not happen on Cutme. The link URL is simply displayed.
This behavior is unusual, as CutMe Short links are designed to display both default and overridden OGP on X. So this shouldn't happen.
I just checked now on X for CutMe Short link OGP is loading.
To investigate this further and assist you better, can you drop a mail to support@cutmeshort.com, if required, we will also set up a call to resolve this issue.
Looking forward to helping you out!
When searching for cme.sh with X, the OGP image is not displayed in all posts.
Hello,
Request you to try once again, if still not able to see OGP, kindly drop your mail at support@cutmeshort.com we will schedule a support call with you. Cheers!
It displayed well.
Can the URL in OGP be set to the target URL by default? It's a hassle to overwrite the metadata every time.
Also, I want X's OGP to display a large image.
Currently, the URL in the OGP metadata is not automatically set to the target URL by default. We’ll take this as a valuable suggestion and add it to our roadmap.
To ensure X displays a large image preview, the og:image tag must point to an image that meets their size requirements (minimum 800 x 418 pixels). If you’re manually setting the metadata you can choose a high-resolution image.
