When I share a blog post on Twitter, it posts like this:

Notice how small the image is. I spoke with Buffer and they said my theme needs to have twitter large cards enabled:

This is a tweet from Buffer support that explains more:
Hi Ryan! When I use Twitters card validator tool I'm seeing the preview being generated like this: http://hi.buffer.com/4683aaf62581
Looking at the details Twitter are sharing in their guide to Twitter Cards, I think these parts are likely key: http://hi.buffer.com/525e8b7b1b2c -Dave

So, can I enabled large images?

Thanks

Hi Ryansmccain,

If you refer at this image -> https://www.screencast.com/t/v9bc5pw8oZsM , then with Yoast SEO will be the easiest way, all you need to do is to go in SEO> Social> Twitter and set to “Summary with large image” like this https://www.screencast.com/t/5Kl3E1eg
Hope this will help you.

Thank you.
