Add featured image for home page (latest posts)

I'm sure I've seen a solution to this on these forums, but can't find it.
Our site is set to show the latest posts on the home page, which means there's no actual page where we can set a featured image. How can we can add one?
We don't actually want the image to show on the home page - it's just for sharing on social, where we want to select an image to appear. At the moment, if we share the home page it seems to grab the image from the first post on the page.
Hi Paul,
Since you're just wanted to set an image for social sites to see, you could add this into the wp_head hook in GP Hooks:
<?php if ( is_home() ) : ?>
<meta property="og:image" content="URL TO YOUR IMAGE"/>
<?php endif; ?>is_home() targets the blog page.
Let me know if you need more info :)
Perfect, thanks Tom!
You're welcome :)
