# Twitter Embed Breaks AMP

* Looks like the twitter embed breaks AMP pages due to a leftover empty tag set.
This doesn’t occur when just using the regular WP embed.
Is it not possible to NOT have this plugin take over embeds that WordPress can
already handle? I just wanted it for the stuff that WordPress doesn’t do. I’ve
had to disable it for the time being as valid AMP pages are more important.

* Thanks for reporting that [@jpeek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jpeek/)
and sorry for the bug. We’ll have a fix out very shortly.
* PublishPress Embeds should default to normal WP embeds, but we made a small typo
there.

* Hi [@jpeek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jpeek/),
* I wasn’t able to reproduce the issue. Please, could you describe the steps to
reproduce that? What plugin have you used for AMP?
* Please, could you check and describe where is the empty “script” tag being printed?
Please, could you send a copy of the output or a screenshot?
* Looking forward to helping,
* Thanks

* I’m using the AMP plugin by Automattic. It’s possible that it’s their fault,
but it doesn’t happen when using the regular WP twitter embed, hence my post
here 🙂
* I don’t have a live example, but here’s a screenshot and the resulting html including
the empty script tag that causes the problem:
* ```

* Just noticed that this also happens with Reddit embeds. Again, this may very
well be a shortcoming of the AMP plugin but…

* Hi [@jpeek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jpeek/),
* We worked on a fix for the issue with the AMP plugin and Twitter and Reddit embeds.
* Please, could you try the following package?

* Been a while since I looked at this more closely and for some reason things seem
to be working over the past few months. I *think* I made a tweak to the AMP plugin
to work around the issue but…
* anyway… tried out the new version and got the following error:
* Fatal error: Class name must be a valid object or a string in […]\wp-content\

* That seems to work. Looks like the tweet is embedding nicely now and I’ve validated
the page source for AMP compliance and it passed.

* To follow up, I did notice that the Reddit embed in the AMP version has a lot
of additional padding at the bottom for some reason.

* Hi [@jpeek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jpeek/),
* Thank you for confirming the fix and for reporting the new issue.
We will take
a look on it.

* Hi [@jpeek](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jpeek/),
* We have a new alfa package addressing the issue you reported on Reddit.
* [http://packages-tmp.s3.amazonaws.com/ef1f687fa3862a12fdb4e7eda535ea1a/embedpress-2.0.1a4.zip](http://packages-tmp.s3.amazonaws.com/ef1f687fa3862a12fdb4e7eda535ea1a/embedpress-2.0.1a4.zip)
* But unfortunately, it requires manually adjust the size on each embed. Reddit
returns different sizes according to each content, and the OEmbed API doesn’t
return the current size. Since it is inside an iframe, we can’t manipulate that.
By default, each embed has a squared proportion of 1:1. You can edit the embed
and set a custom size (which will make it calculate the correct proportion).
* Please, let us know if that helps.
* Kind regards,

* On an unrelated note, I noticed the following error when embedding an Instagram
post. The post still embeds nicely, but the warning is displayed at the top of
the content.
