Sharing to X (formerly Twitter)

Sharing an Openscholar Page on X (formerly Twitter)

The image displayed in an OpenScholar url tweeted out is the image set in SEO setting page
Control Panel - Site Logo setting

Here are the specs given by Twitter about the requirements for the site logo image:

- Image width/height: Minimum 600 X 335 pixels, although larger images (for example 1200 X 675) will be better optimized for when users click to expand images.

- Image file size: Max 15mb on twitter.com and 3mb on ads.twitter.com

The Twitter post should look like this:

If a user tweets the root url, Twitter displays the site logo.

If a user tweets a listing page, like /publications or /news, Twitter displays the site logo

However, if a user tweets a post - such a news post having news image, a publication with cover image, a person profile with photo, or a page containing images, then Twitter will display the image instead of site logo.
