Twitter Cards

twitter:card tags (still used by X) produce large image previews instead of a bare link.

Pass condition in our engine: twitter: card meta tags are present.

1. Problem description

If you already have Open Graph, X often falls back to og: tags — but an explicit twitter:card remains more reliable, especially for summary_large_image. Missing tags mean a text-only share.

2. Most common causes

  • Only Open Graph was implemented.
  • twitter:image points at a blocked or tiny file.

3. How to fix it

  1. Add twitter:card = summary_large_image plus title, description and image.
  2. You may mirror og: values.
  3. Test with X’s card validator if the account has access.
