# Cover

The **Publication cover** is a native Ghost feature used to visually represent your site in different ways.

By default, it appears as the **Open Graph** image (`og:image`) when your site is shared on social media.

In the **Neue** theme, the publication cover is also displayed as the website background ([Display Options](/guides/neue/customization/site-wide/cover.md)).

To upload or change the cover image:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Access Ghost Admin

* Log in to your Ghost Admin at `yoursite.com/ghost`
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Go to Brand Settings

* Navigate to **Settings** > **Site** > **Design & branding** `yoursite.com/ghost/#/settings/design`
* Click the **"Customize"** button to open the editor.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Upload Your Cover

* Under **Publication cover**, click **"Upload cover"** and select your file.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Save Changes

* Click **"Save"** to apply your cover to the site.
  {% endstep %}
  {% endstepper %}

### Custom Image for Social Media

If you prefer using a different image for social sharing instead of the publication cover, you can set a custom image for each platform.

In Ghost Admin, go to **General settings** and click **"Edit"** under the **X card** or **Facebook card** section. There, you can upload a custom image that will be used when your site is shared on those platforms.

Don’t forget to save your changes.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.ektothemes.com/guides/neue/customization/cover.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
