Frequently Asked Questions
It’s a known issue due to Instagram. Twitter said it recently : Users are experiencing issues with viewing Instagram photos on Twitter. Issues include cropped images.This is due to Instagram disabling its Twitter cards integration, and as a result, photos are being displayed using a pre-cards experience.
So, when users click on Tweets with an Instagram link, photos appear cropped.
- Make sure you correctly fulfilled fields in option page according to Twitter documentation
-
Be careful with your robots.txt and put some rules to allow Twitter to fetch your website :
User-agent: Twitterbot Disallow:
If it still doesn’t work please open a thread on support.
I can be a problem when you work with HD and/or a lot of images.
How do I use the custom fields option?
Basically you provide your custom field keys in plugin option page and then it will grab datas.

C’est un problème connu. Cela vient d’Instagram lui-même qui préfère que ses utilisateurs partagent les photos chez lui plutôt que sur Twitter. Instagram a supprimé ses Twitter Cards.
- Assurez-vous bien d’avoir rempli correctement les champs dans la page d’options suivant la documentation Twitter
-
Attention avec le fichier robots.txt, vous devez autoriser le robot de Twitter à crawler votre site:
User-agent: Twitterbot Disallow:
Si cela ne marche toujours pas SVP ouvrez un topic sur le support.
Cela peut poser problème si vous travaillez avec de la HD et/ou beaucoup d’images. Vous pouvez donc utiliser un plugin qui va effacer les fichiers images non utilisés.
Il suffit de renseigner les clés de vos custom fields en page d’option et le plugin s’occupera de récupérer les datas correspondantes.
