Hey Duncan,

What you are doing is correct. Up to two accounts can be recommended
and are added the way you have coded. For example:
    data-related="twitter,twitterapi"

or:
    related=twitter,twitterapi

If the account doesn't show as a related account when it should -
which appears to be the case here - the account holder should contact
our user support team so they can check everything is ok.

Hope that answers your question,
