Twitter card refuses to pull images from WordPress | WordPress.org

Hi everyone,
We have our Twitterbot set up correctly in robots.txt. Additionally, the Yoast SEO plug-in is set up correctly within WordPress to recognize our Twitter account, and it’s set up for Summary + Large Image there.

However, Twitter cards still refuse to pull the image from any of our WordPress posts.

The blog is here:

You can see what it looks like when you plug it into the Twitter card validator:

Someone in Twitter support suggested the following solution, but I’m not sure how to implement it in Yoast SEO:

Currently you have:

<meta name=”twitter:image” content=”/wp-content/uploads/star-wars-facts-to-awaken-your-curiosity-ft.jpg” />

This should be:

<meta name=”twitter:image” content=”https://www.colorfulplaces.com/wp-content/uploads/star-wars-facts-to-awaken-your-curiosity-ft.jpg” />

Help!

By default, the twitter:image will contain the full URL of the image as the Twitter support person suggested. If I understand correctly, this happens to all of your content and not just a few links? If so, sometimes strange behavior may be caused by a plugin or theme conflict. If you are unfamiliar with checking for conflicts, we wrote a small guide that will walk you through the steps. You can find it here: How To Check For Plugin Conflicts
