Title: Twitter card function request Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Twitter card function request * Resolved [solosails](https://wordpress.org/support/users/solosails/) * (@solosails) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/) * Hi, * Having delved into the twitter card stuff for the first time the other day I have a request that I’m sure you’re planning on implementing anyway, but as a user I would like to say this would be very handy … * Is there any way to have an option in a post (and more importantly a product) that allows to select the type of twitter card to be used? Ie summary (which is is fixed to now) or summary_large_image or product etc? * This would be a very handy and simple thing to add and would make this function a lot more useful. * Yesterday I altered your code a little to make it default as the summary_large_image rather than summary, which for me is a better option to have as standard, but this will obviously get wiped by the next update and to have a choice for different situations would be great anyway. * Thanks very much in advance. * Cheers. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-seo-pack/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-seo-pack/) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 17 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/page/2/?output_format=md) * [Peter Baylies](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pbaylies/) * (@pbaylies) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/#post-4853822) * Hi solosails, * Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll add it to the roadmap; you can currently do this with our hooks as well, here’s a code example: * ``` add_filter( 'aiosp_opengraph_meta', 'solosails_filter_card', 10, 3 ); function solosails_filter_card( $value, $type, $field ) { if ( ( $type == 'twitter' ) && ( $field == 'card' ) ) { $value = 'summary_large_image'; } return $value; } ``` * Thread Starter [solosails](https://wordpress.org/support/users/solosails/) * (@solosails) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/#post-4853825) * Hi Peter, * Thanks for your reply and the code, I’ll give it a go! * Look forward to the updated version. * Thanks again, Andrew * Thread Starter [solosails](https://wordpress.org/support/users/solosails/) * (@solosails) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/#post-4853826) * Works a treat, thanks again. * [Peter Baylies](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pbaylies/) * (@pbaylies) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/#post-4853827) * You’re welcome Andrew, always glad to hear that! * Thread Starter [solosails](https://wordpress.org/support/users/solosails/) * (@solosails) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/#post-4853828) * Ah, actually, I found an issue using this, it not your plugin though. * Today, I installed woocommerce twitter card product plugin which changes your titter card meta to product on the product pages. This worked fine, but now I use your hook, it doesn’t do this any more? * Any ideas? * [Peter Baylies](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pbaylies/) * (@pbaylies) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/#post-4853829) * Hi Andrew, * I don’t know how they go about changing it, but one solution would be to check for their product pages in this function and not change the value in that case( or change it to product in this code as well). * ``` function solosails_filter_card( $value, $type, $field ) { if ( ( $type == 'twitter' ) && ( $field == 'card' ) ) { if ( ( function_exists( 'is_product' ) ) && ( is_product() ) ) { $value = 'product'; } else { $value = 'summary_large_image'; } } return $value; } ``` * Thread Starter [solosails](https://wordpress.org/support/users/solosails/) * (@solosails) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/#post-4853830) * hmm, works correctly in product pages, but the ‘else summary_large_image’ doesn’t seem to appear in the other pages, just stays as summary? * [Peter Baylies](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pbaylies/) * (@pbaylies) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/#post-4853831) * That’s strange; see if it does the same thing without the WooCommerce Twitter Card product plugin active. * Thread Starter [solosails](https://wordpress.org/support/users/solosails/) * (@solosails) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/#post-4853832) * Nope, even with it deactivated, it doesn’t show the large image on an ordinary post? * [Peter Baylies](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pbaylies/) * (@pbaylies) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/#post-4853833) * But is it outputting summary_large_image for the Twitter card meta? I trust you didn’t get rid of the add_filter() line? * Thread Starter [solosails](https://wordpress.org/support/users/solosails/) * (@solosails) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/#post-4853834) * oops,,, yes I did delete it! * I can confirm that your code works perfectly now, thank you very very much for your time, Andrew * This works fine.. * ``` add_filter( 'aiosp_opengraph_meta', 'solosails_filter_card', 10, 3 ); function solosails_filter_card( $value, $type, $field ) { if ( ( $type == 'twitter' ) && ( $field == 'card' ) ) { if ( ( function_exists( 'is_product' ) ) && ( is_product() ) ) { $value = 'product'; } else { $value = 'summary_large_image'; } } return $value; } ``` * For anyone reading this, the plugin I am using in conjunction is Twitter Product Card for WooCommerce * Thread Starter [solosails](https://wordpress.org/support/users/solosails/) * (@solosails) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/twitter-card-function-request/#post-4853873) * Hi again Peter, * This is just pushing my luck a bit… well a lot actually! * Any ideas how I might get AIOSEOP to add the ‘player’ twitter card into posts? * It requires * as a minimum and
