Is there a way to disable Twitter Card code for Jetpack? I manually added the Twitter Card code a long time ago which works fine, but now I have two lots of code and actually Jetpack is adding it as a photo card not summary anyway!
I’m currently using a separate plugin (by Will Norris) for OpenGraph tags since Jetpack doesn’t add them, as far as I’m aware.
I’m assuming you’re referring to this plugin?
Jetpack actually does add Open Graph Meta tags and Twitter Cards to your posts. But if you’re already using another plugin to do just that, the Jetpack Open Graph meta tags are automatically deactivated to avoid duplicate tags on your site. If you were to deactivate your Open Graph plugin, you’d see that the Jetpack Open Graph meta tags and Twitter Cards will be added to your site again.

You can add this code to your theme’s functions.php file to remove the Twitter Cards and the Open Graph Meta tags:
add_filter( 'jetpack_enable_open_graph', '__return_false' );
Thanks for the response, however it had no effect – the code still remains.

That’s indeed the plugin I was using and you’re right, the OpenGraph and Twitter Card tags do appear on the site once I deactivated it! Strange, I added the other plugin because I didn’t see OG tags even though I had Jetpack. At any rate it works now, thanks.
@glidem Could you post your site URL here, so I can have a look?
If you want it to remain private, you can also contact us via this contact form:

Thanks!
I can see the Open Graph tags indeed. If adding the code to your theme’s functions.php file didn’t work, could you try to install this small plugin instead?

Let me know if it helps.
That seems to have done the trick thanks.
Hopefully there will be an option in the next version of Jetpack, love the plugin obviously however always handy to be able to disable individual features no matter how small.
Another update from my end. I figured out why I had not previously seen OpenGraph tags in Jetpack: You must enable Publicize to generate meta tags. You don’t have to actually use publicize or establish any connections, but the Publicize module must be enabled for Jetpack to insert OpenGraph and Twitter Card tags.
