Hi,

I was very glad to learn that the latest version unables the image meta tag in the tweets. I'm trying to modify the Twitter - Share tag I'm using in my blog article, so that when it's twitted, the teet is with the article image. I found a topic about twitter cards created earlier, but couldn't post my reply there. So I'm creating a new topic just to ask what is the correct code to add? I've tried both image=FULL_URL_TO_IMAGE and twitter:image=FULL_URL_TO_IMAGE - when I press this button, no image shows up. I've checked Configuration, Twitter Cards enabled, and I've chosen Summary Card with Large Image. I've checked Twitter Cards Validator - it works perfectly. Only the buttons inside the article (both JFBCOnnect easy tag and a third party sharing buttons) don't pick up the image :-(

Please help!
Thank you.

The validator is what matters to show that the data on your page is correct. Unfortunately, Twitter caches the meta data it sees and only updates that every week or so. You'll need to wait until it's properly re-indexed by Twitter.

For more information, see the "I updated my site meta tags, but my tweet shows the old Card. How do I refresh the Card?" topic in the following troubleshooting guide page:

Thanks,
Alex
