Twitter has retired version 1 of their API causing some widgets to stop working.

Some users may be having problems with their twitter widgets and RSS feeds. This is because Twitter has retired their API that supports the older widgets and RSS feeds.

For users replacing their existing widgets twitter recommends embedded time lines (https://dev.twitter.com/docs/embedded-timelines)

For users replacing the RSS feed widget that agregates a bunch of feeds it is suggested that you create a list in twitter and then use the embedded time lines widget to embed the time line into an HTML widget.

You can create your own twitter widgets for embedding here https://twitter.com/settings/widgets

Hey Bryan,

Unfortunately, the new Twitter code is not playing nice with Tidy. The timeline feed is not rendering. Thoughts on how to workaround this?

Hi Kerry,

It looks like the current versions of the twitter widgets should work within an HTML widget with no trouble. Just to make sure, you're creating a widget at https://twitter.com/settings/widgets and pasting the code for the widget in the HTML mode of an HTML widget?

If you are already doing this, we may need to have a look at the page in question and see what's going on. If that's the case, please submit a support ticket to support@igloosoftware.com, and provide the URL of the page where you are trying to put the Twitter widget.
