Change <meta property="twitter:image" ...> to <meta name="twitter:image" ...> #465

Closed hannotify closed 1 year ago

It seems like Twitter Cards has moved away from detecting <meta property="twitter:image" ...>, because I noticed that the images I provided to my blog posts stopped showing up in my Twitter Cards. This StackOverflow answer caused me to look into the issue and sure enough, the Twitter documentation now uses meta name instead of meta property.

When I tried to verify this using the following dirty hack...

    {% capture seoWithProperTwitterMetaTags %}
    {% seo %}
    {% endcapture %}

    <!-- because of https://stackoverflow.com/a/71063178/505996 -->
    {{ seoWithProperTwitterMetaTags | replace: 'property="twitter:image"', 'name="twitter:image"' }}

...it turned out this was actually the issue, because the images started showing up on my Twitter Cards again.

So I want to suggest to change <meta property="twitter:image" ...> to <meta name="twitter:image" ...>.
