Twitter cards' parsing is dependent on the order of meta tag's attributes

[peritpatrio]

Noticed that when using open graph meta tags (which Twitter cards should fallback on?), the parsing might fail if the property attribute is not the first attribute of the description meta tag. Example:

<meta name="description" property="og:description" content="Combine all your content, including what your fans say about you, into one social hub.">

results in:

ERROR: Invalid value (message: Field description failed to validate because: text expects tag property, but not found in Map().)

while

<meta property="og:description" name="description" content="Combine all your content, including what your fans say about you, into one social hub.">

will be parsed successfully.

Interesting! Thanks for this information. I’ll share with the team that works on the cards crawler and see if they can either adjust that behaviour, or whether we should document it more clearly.
