About X (Twitter) settings

When you share your pages to X (Twitter), Wix provides the image and text you've included in your Social Share settings so that it displays in the correct format for an X (Twitter) card. 
You can also customize your page's X (Twitter) settings to display a different x:title, x:description, and x:image for pages that you share on X (Twitter).

  • Card size: Choose to include a large or small card in your X (Twitter) share.
  • x:title: Add a title that summarizes the content of the page. We recommend keeping the length below 80 characters or some of the title may be truncated. Use the preview to see how the title will look in your social share.
  • x:description: Add a short description of the content of the page. We recommend keeping the length below 300 characters or some of the description may be truncated. Use the preview to see how the description will look in your social share.
