Hi guys,
Social Meta > Configuration > Skip Component: SP Page Builder

So, into SPPB Page SEO settings I can set "Title", "Description", "Image"

by using Facebook Debugger Tool - this page for example - Facebook found and knows the fb:app_id, I suppose many thanks to JFBConnect, very good

by using Twitter Card Validator - on the same page - Twitter tell me "INFO: twitter:card = summary tag found" and the image is shown like a small square Twitter Player Card , but into JFBConnect I set:
Social Meta > Configuration > Twitter Cards:
- Enabled: Yes
- Card Types: Summary Card with Large Image
- Website Username: @blablabla

1 - The "Card Types: Summary Card with Large Image" and "Website Username: @blablabla" should be the correct informations inherit from JFBConnect, Am I right ?
2 - So, Why Twitter is reading a simple "summary tag" and managing the image like a Player Card ?

3 - Please,, What exactly is the "Meta Social > Configuration > Advanced > Turn Off All Open Graph Tags" setting ?

Social Meta > Configuration > Skip Component: SP Page Builder

Did you set JFBConnect to skip tags in SP Page Builder? If so, then JFBConnect should not be setting any tags there. In that case, all the other settings you mention about Twitter should not be set and would explain why Twitter is getting the basic card info.

Please,, What exactly is the "Meta Social > Configuration > Advanced > Turn Off All Open Graph Tags" setting ?

That should disable all Open Graph & Twitter Card tags being set throughout your site. That's useful if you're using another method to set those tags.

Thanks,
Alex

Okay Alex,

1 - by setting "Social Meta > Configuration > Skip Component: SP Page Builder not selected"
It seems to run quite well: FB App ID, Card Types: Summary Card with Large Image and the Website Username: @blablabla are recovered from JFBConnect, while the "Title", "Description", "Image" from SP Page Builder.
Anyway, thinking on what I wrote on my previous post, Is this the right way ? Is this the best way ?
Please, Can you check if the code in the page is called in the best way "without code overloading"
PS - that is a 1200 x 630 px png image and it is not cropped as we are discussing here , Do you remember ?

2 - "...should disable all Open Graph & Twitter Card tags being set throughout your site..." = I understood what you mean, but I'm not understanding its utility, Please Can you help me on understanding when it would be useful ?

It seems like SP Page builder reliably sets the open graph tags for image and description. It's fine if you want to rely on them for the page-specific tags and JFBConnect for the site-specific tags. Some extensions don't set the tags correctly, but if the SP Page Builder does, I see no problem with that solution.

This setting stops JFBConnect from setting the tags, but allows other extensions to continue to do so. To provide greater control and flexibility, we allow you to turn off the tags from JFBConnect and use other extensions (or yourself manually) to set them. In your case, this doesn't seem like what you want for this site.
