When I post a direct twitter/x link in my forum it is not correctly unfurling. When I post the exact same link here on the discourse forum it is working.

Have you followed the steps in Configuring X login and rich embeds for Discourse?

I have NOT. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction!

I followed the directions to create a twitter consumer ID and secret (from the developers.x.com portal) using the “free” tier. When I use these generated values and add them in the discourse settings as shown below I am still getting the same incorrectly unfurled twitter post as described in my original post. Note that my discourse instance is a self-hosted on an AWS EC2 instance. [image]

Oh my gosh.. egg on my face. I failed to read the first paragraph of the documentation with the giant warning sign! How kind of you not to scold me! I appreciate the prompt helpfulness provided here in the forum.

I am loving the use of the term “unfurling”. We refer to oneboxing here for that functionality. I’ve added the #onebox tag and also alerted the staff experience team to look into how the UI might be improved to make it easier to understan what’s going on in a case like this. I believe there are other cases when the onebox displays an error message in the composer if it won’t be able to create a proper onebox. Maybe that could be a solution here as well. Or as you say just display it as a simple link if it’s not going to onebox correctly. [image] WolfpackFan: Correctly Unfurled Example on discourse.org forums https://x.com/ryanhallyall/status/1961057800693453214 Looks like in your example you did not leave a line break before the URL to be oneboxed. Here it is looking as expected. [image] Ryan Hall, Y’all @ryanhallyall We're tracking a new potential system in the Atlantic.
