Player Card Approval denied
-
Hi,
I was able to setup a twitter card for “summery below large image” and got it approved right away.Then i tried to get a “player card” approved,but my requests for the player card got rejected by twitter and i can’t figure out why.
The twitter card validator gave me all those “green checkmarks” for the player card, so everything seemed to be right – still it gets rejected.
Twitter says the Reason for the rejection is that the video won’t play on Android devices (desktop and ios devices work).I want to use player cards for all the posts that include an embedded youtube video link.
I tested that with the validator tool in chrome on an android device, and it’s true – the video won’t play.
I tried different versions of the youtube link in the jm twitter card meta box for the player url and stream url, but nothing was successful – so is this a bug or am i doing something wrong?
I used this version of the embedded link in the post:
https://www.youtube.com/embed/xxxxxxxxx?rel=0
and added the same url in the box for the iframe player and stream – this didn’t work.
Then i left the “stream” url blank – and used only the player url.
Then i left the “player” url blank – and used only the stream url.
then i tried the same combination but without the …?rel=0 at the end:https://www.youtube.com/embed/xxxxxxxx
And i set the width and length in the meta box for the player card to 640×360 ..the same size that is set in the youtube iframe link:
…width=”640″ height=”360″ frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen=”allowfullscreen”></iframe>..
or should i leave that blank in the meta-box settings?
what am i doing wrong? how can i fix this?
i used the same post to get the “summery card” approved – is this maybe the issue? do i have to use a new post to get the player card approved?this is the link to the post i tried to get approved for a player card: link
something else i noticed: in the general settings for the jm twitter cards plugin – i can’t choose the player card as default card (it doesnt show up in the drop down menu)
and another question: what means this open “graph/seo yes/no” option in the settings? should i set it on yes or no? (i also use yoast’s wp-seo plugin – is this option only for people who dont use yoast’s seo plugin?)
