What Triggers This Issue

This issue is triggered when the twitter:image URL is either not an image, or a supported filetype (JPG, PNG or WebP) used by X.

Example:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image"/>
<meta name="twitter:site" content="@yoursite"/>
<meta name="twitter:creator" content="@author"/>
<meta name="twitter:title" content="Your headline"/>
<meta name="twitter:description" content="Your exciting description."/>
<meta name="twitter:image" content="https://www.example.com/example.html"/>
</head>
<body>
...
</body>
</html>


The twitter:image URL is incorrect as HTML https://www.example.com/example.html rather than an image format.

How To Fix

Ensure that the URL specified in twitter:image is an image, and it is a supported filetype to be used by X.
