The Publication cover in Ghost is a native feature used to represent your site visually in multiple ways.
In the Sense theme, this image is also used as the background for the Signup section on the homepage.
By default, Ghost uses the cover image as the Open Graph image (og:image) when your site is shared on social media platforms.

To upload or change the cover image:
Log in to your Ghost Admin at yoursite.com/ghost
yoursite.com/ghost
Navigate to Settings > Site > Design & branding yoursite.com/ghost/#/settings/design
yoursite.com/ghost/#/settings/design
Click the "Customize" button to open the editor.
Select the Brand section on the right.
Under Publication cover, click "Upload cover" and select your file.
Click "Save" to apply your cover to the site.
If you want to use a different image for social sharing (instead of your publication cover), follow these steps:
Navigate to Settings > General settings yoursite.com/ghost/#/settings/general
yoursite.com/ghost/#/settings/general
Click "Edit" under X card or Facebook card
Add a custom image that represents your site on each platform.
Click "Save" to apply your changes.
