Sharing cards #38

Open yn-coder opened 6 years ago

getting the social sharing "cards" to work with the theme. In other words, making it so that when someone clicks the twitter sharing button on an article, that it embeds a specified image in the tweet.

To be clear about what I mean with this:

https://github.com/duilio/pelican-octopress-theme#markup-for-social-sharing

social_image: A path to an image, relative to SITEURL. This image
will show up next to the other information in social shares.

With other sites, when you click the "share" button, the tweet that's generated will be populated with the title, description, and specified image. That last part hasn't worked for me and I don't know why.
