❌ Important first (no sugar-coating)
You cannot replace or change the image of an already published LinkedIn post.
LinkedIn doesn’t allow editing post images once it’s live.
✅ What you can do (best options)

Steps:
-
Go to your post
-
Click ⋯ (three dots)
-
Select Delete post
-
Create a new post with the corrected image
-
Reuse the same caption (or improve it π)
π‘ Pro tip: Repost at a better time (9–11 AM or 6–8 PM IST)
πΌ️ Option 2: Add Image in Comments (If likes are already there)
Steps:
-
Open your post
-
Go to Comments
-
Click Image icon
-
Upload the new image

Comment text:
π “Updated image for better clarity ⬇️”

π Best practice going forward
-
Preview image before posting
