 * There’s an error in the meta tag settings for Twitter cards
 * <meta name=”twitter:creator” content=”@http://twitter.com/twitteraccount”>
 * should be:
 * <meta name=”twitter:creator” content=”@twitteraccount”>

 * We get the same error. The Yoast site doesn’t show the error when you look at
   their source. Hopefully someone can shed some light on the quick fix.

 * Make sure you’re entering **only** the username, **not** the full Twitter profile
   URL under the Social > Twitter settings.
 * Entering only the username — “twitteraccount”, not “@twitteraccount” or “[http://twitter.com/twitteraccount&#8221](http://twitter.com/twitteraccount&#8221);—
   sets the code properly. 🙂
