Description of issue:
I’m reading through the Twitter markup and I am a bit confused as to when can I use twitter:site:id and twitter:creator:id.

Under twitter:site:
@username of website. Either twitter:site or twitter:site:id is required.
Used with summary, summary_large_image, app, player cards

But the equivalent twitter:site:id tag says the following:
Same as twitter:site, but the user’s Twitter ID. Either twitter:site or twitter:site:id is required.
Used with summary, summary_large_image, player cards
app is missing


Under:twitter:creator
@username of content creator
Used with summary_large_image cards

But the equivalent twitter:creator:id tag says the following:
Twitter user ID of content creator
Used with summary, summary_large_image cards

I can use the twitter:creator:id on summary but I cannot use twitter:creator ?

I believe that technically, neither / none of those tags are required, and the documentation is overdue for a clean-up. I’m pretty sure that none of these values are represented in the user interface any more. I can check on this next week; I’m not going to be able to do so before next Tuesday at the earliest.

Thank you! That’d be great :slight_smile:

@andypiper On another note, am I allowed to use twitter:app:url:* even if the card type is not app ? I see Kickstarter is using it for project pages, so I wonder?
