  • In the plugin parameters (accessible from the AcyMailing configuration page, tab "plugins"), you will find an option so you can choose if the Newsletter is displayed inside your Joomla template with its modules/menus or in a standalone page.

Force facebook to use the picture you want

Facebook will automatically pick up a picture within your page... it may not be the picture you wanted to share.

To force Facebook to share the picture you want, edit one of your picture and apply the class "pictshare" or the id "pictshare" to it. AcyMailing will detect it and will add it in your header as og:image
