Gallery Card Not working on Twitter.com

Hi.

My Gallery Cards were working perfect on baldhiker.com in all I could see both mobile and on twitter website.

The past few days however all the tweets showing on Twitter.com/web are published as a summary card without a picture even?
The validator tool still shows as authorised and working for gallery cards though?

It seems on IOS and Android it works sometimes as a gallery still.

Same happened for me. And still waiting on Gallery Card fix: https://dev.twitter.com/issues/979

We are having similar problems with images on our tweets. All the other information works perfectly including description, title, links etc but the image for either summary card will not display. Everything matches Twitter documentation perfectly but no one from the development team can provide an answer for us or help troubleshoot.

Just reported this as API Issue. Hope to get at least partial Gallery Cards functionality back.

Same issues too… Our summary cards are working fine though…

I can confirm this issue as well.

Okay just going to put all the details here and tweet the developer (who is genuinely helpful) I’ve seen active on the forum.

Tweet a URL to a gallery card, will only load a summary card without any pictures in the news feed, however it will load a full 4 images if you view the details of the card…

This is in FireFox 19… however try the very same thing in IE 8 and it appears to work fine… At this point I’m wondering if it’s browser related… (it could be my cache but I’ve tried clearing it).

And here’s what I see:

Gallery Cards

always worked in Status view
never worked in Search (see acknowledged API Issue #979 - no ETA)
used to work in Home TL and then broke (what we’re discussing here, see API Issue #1092)
still work in Home TL in Official Twitter App on iPhone/iPad
