XF 2.1 Opengraph image AWOL on Twitter

[JamesBrown]

It appears when links are posted to Facebook, but not on Twitter. Any ideas why? Cheers

It works for this site (and others).



What do you get if you paste a URL from your site here: https://cards-dev.twitter.com/validator

 

[JamesBrown]

I get this

Presumably you have set the Metadata Logo URL in the style properties?

Presumably you have set the Metadata Logo URL in the style properties?

Yes and it appears OK when I post to Fb

 

[Paul B]

No idea then.

Presumably it's a glitch on Twitter's end - perhaps they are using cached data for your site and haven't updated it with the new metadata image?

Hi @Brogan FYI I fixed this.

The metadata logo path in xF was /forum/images/logo.og.png.

I changed this to the full url. https://etc/etc/logo.og.png. and its now showing up on both fb and twitter

Thanks for your help

That doesn't really make a lot of sense.

Mine is relative and works fine, as is this site.

Perhaps try dropping the leading /, depending on the image relative to the directory structure.
