  • Hello,

    What a great theme you have developed here.

    I have a slight query about the twitter widget. Where should I get the information to configure it?

    Thank you,
    Bruce.

    Hi Bruce,

    Thanks for writing and thanks for your kind words.

    In order to configure the Twitter Widget you need to do the following:

    1. Visit http://dev.twitter.com/apps/new
    2. Login or make sure to login with the Twitter account used on website to display tweets
    3. Type the following on input fields:
    Name: [Your Site Name] Twitter Widget
    Description: Display twitter feeds on website
    Website: [Your website URL]
    Callback URL: (leave blank)

    4. Check on “Yes, I agree” and fill the CAPTCHA
    5. Once the application is setup, copy and paste the application OAuth settings into your Twitter Widget Configuration. (Consumer and Consumer Key)
    6. Back on Twitter click “Create my access token”, then copy and paste the recently created Access Token into your widget configuration back on your website.
    7. On the Widget Configuration on your website, change the Username name to your Twitter ID without @ symbol. Complete the other fields if necessary (Include Retweets, Exclude Replies & the number of tweets to show).
    8. Save the Widget settings.
    9. Voilá, your tweets should be displaying by now.

    Best,
    Juan.
