I do understand how to do this if I just want to post a YouTube video. That works fine. I was just hoping to create a card for a page within my website that has a YouTube video embedded there. That way, if someone clicks through on the card, it sends them to my webpage, not the YouTube page. Is this possible?

Actually upon submitting this card to Twitter, they said “Your card loads on desktop and iPhone, but does not load on Android.”

As reference, the code that gets generated for the page I’m trying to create is (I’ve taken out some of the fields here & filled in dummy text:

<!-- JM Twitter Cards by Julien Maury 5.2.0 -->
<meta name="twitter:card" content="player">
<meta name="twitter:creator" content="@text">
<meta name="twitter:site" content="@text">

I’d welcome any further direction you can provide on how to get my Player Card to work with Android. Thanks so much for creating this plugin. It’s great!

Jenny,

You are a genius! I followed step #2, and it worked exactly as I hoped. FIXED! You helped me solve two issues I’ve been wrestling with for the past 24 hours with no progress, and in your notes here, you’ve 100% fixed my issues. Thank you so much for your help. I really appreciate it.

Sure. Here are two:

Before adding the HTML5 theme support, the caption text appeared like what you see right now, which I like. However, if I update it to the HTML5 version (making live the modifications you suggested above), the caption text seems to be really large, and if I try to adjust in style.css, there’s no affect on the caption text size. I am, however, able to control the padding. Just seems the text size is locked. Not sure if this is forced by the HTML5 WP 3.9 formatting?

Feel free to let me know if you want me to also let you see the version w/HTML5 active, and I can upload that version of the php file to make my site live under that condition. Thank you so much!

JennyB, thanks so much for your quick response. So, to clarify, would I:
1) copy & paste this entire code into the functions.php file? Can I also just copy & paste in the specific functionality I want a la carte, or does that break the code?
2) replace the word “example” with the name of my theme? (do you know how I can find the name of my theme in the correct syntax?)

Finally, does this need to go anywhere in particular in my functions.php file?

For reference, I’ve attached my functions.php code here. Thank you so much!
