FAQ

I got problem with Instagram

It’s a known issue due to Instagram. Twitter said it recently : Users are experiencing issues with viewing Instagram photos on Twitter. Issues include cropped images.This is due to Instagram disabling its Twitter cards integration, and as a result, photos are being displayed using a pre-cards experience.
So, when users click on Tweets with an Instagram link, photos appear cropped.

Plugin is fine but Twitter cards doesn’t appear in my tweets

  1. Make sure you correctly fulfilled fields in option page according to Twitter documentation

  2. Be careful with your robots.txt and put some rules to allow Twitter to fetch your website :

    User-agent: Twitterbot
Disallow:

If it still doesn’t work please open a thread on support.

The plugin generates a lot of images (different sizes)

I can be a problem when you work with HD and/or a lot of images.

How do I use the custom fields option?

Basically you provide your custom field keys in plugin option page and then it will grab datas.

Problème avec Instagram

C’est un problème connu. Cela vient d’Instagram lui-même qui préfère que ses utilisateurs partagent les photos chez lui plutôt que sur Twitter. Instagram a supprimé ses Twitter Cards.

Le plugin marche mais je n’obtiens pas de Twitter Cards dans mes tweets

  1. Assurez-vous bien d’avoir rempli correctement les champs dans la page d’options suivant la documentation Twitter

  2. Attention avec le fichier robots.txt, vous devez autoriser le robot de Twitter à crawler votre site:

    User-agent: Twitterbot
Disallow:

Si cela ne marche toujours pas SVP ouvrez un topic sur le support.

Le plugin génère beaucoup trop de fichiers images

Cela peut poser problème si vous travaillez avec de la HD et/ou beaucoup d’images. Vous pouvez donc utiliser un plugin qui va effacer les fichiers images non utilisés.

Comment utiliser l’option custom fields?

Il suffit de renseigner les clés de vos custom fields en page d’option et le plugin s’occupera de récupérer les datas correspondantes.

This plugin is so simple it confused me, i was trying to work out how to connects to the twitter API. It doesn't (as it says in the description) it adds metadata to each post and when you post the link in the twitter app it 'all just works'! Only thing i would like to see added is the ability for twitter:description to be populated from the Excerpt text not the body text. There seems to be an option to do this but it seems it doesn't work? **update - raising to 5 stars** Developer corrected the way the feature worked within 5 days of me raising the issue. Thanks, and Brilliant!
