I’m using the Sirv image CDN to host my WordPress images.
No images are in my WordPress Media Library, they are all hosted on a separate CDN (Sirv).

My goal is to add an open graph image per post using Yoast:
Social – Yoast SEO screen | Facebook tab | Image URL setting

But, the only way to populate the Image URL field is to click the “Upload Image” button, which allows you only to add/upload an image from the WordPress Media Library. I do not want to have any images in my WordPress Media Library.

Is there a way to use my own, custom URL value for the Image URL field?
For example, how could I enter a value of https://s.w.org/style/images/about/WordPress-logotype-wordmark.png for the Image URL field?

The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

Social images are connected to the media library because the process allows Yoast SEO to gather the required information about the image, like height and width.

You or your developer can use the wpseo_opengraph_image and related Open Graph filters to customize this feature.

Example code snippets for modifying Open Graph tags can be found here:

Typically code snippets are added to your theme’s functions.php file. If you’re not familiar with using code snippets, these articles have wonderful advice:

Thanks @amboutwe

Based on your suggestions, a possible solution could be to add a meta box to the post admin screen where an OG image URL can be saved (per post). Then, on functions.php, use the wpseo_opengraph filter to change the OG image URL to match the value stored via the meta box.

I’ll give it a try and let you know what I find.

Can Yoast SEO not detect if the image is on a CDN in this case and provide the correct URL in og:image? This seems an obvious feature for a plugin as refined as this.

Currently if you use a CDN and a plugin such as WP Offload Media Lite, Yoast SEO will always output:
```
<meta property="og:image" content="https://www.example.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/image.jpg" />
```
Instead of:
```
<meta property="og:image" content="https://static.example.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/image.jpg" />
```
Other plugins such as EWWW Image Optimizer handle this, can’t Yoast SEO too?
