Hi, I followed the twitter feed problem but all it shows is the title of the widget. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Hi,

I am getting a syntax error from your JavaScripts. I am assuming this is what's causing your widget to not work as a syntax error stops all scripts from running.

You have this content in JavaScripts management :
( Modules > javascript codes management )

Code:

<script src="http://twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js"type="text/javascript"></script><script src="http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/agamersgaming.json?callback=twitterCallback2&count=1" type="text/javascript"></script><script src="http:

This is HTML which refers to an external script. It should be added to where HTML formats. ( e.g. widgets, html page, homepage message ) Also the last script tag is cut off at the source.

I think added that section to the CSS.

It didn't specify which code goes where in the tutorial so I was confused, I think I still am.

Where is this "Tutorial" you used ?

In the Tips & Tricks section, under Widgets.

https://help.forumotion.com/t57903-add-a-twitter-feed-to-your-portal

This goes into the widget :

Code:

<div class="twitterfeed"><div id="twitter_div" style="margin-left: 35px; padding-top: 3px;"><ul id="twitter_update_list" style=" list-style-image : url(http://hitskin.com/themes/13/34/38/i_icon_minipost_participate.png); font-size: 12px; line-height: 15px;"><li style="padding-top: 3px; padding-left 20px;"> </li></ul></div><p align="right" style="margin-top: 2px; font-size: 11px;">recently twittered on <a href="http://twitter.com/forumotion">Forumotion</a></div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/forumotion.json?callback=twitterCallback2&count=1"></script>

In the HTML above you must modify this piece to the information which corresponds to your twitter account :

Code:

<a href="twitter.com/forumotion">Forumotion</a>

You must also edit this part in the HTML above :

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/forumotion.json?callback=twitterCallback2&count=1">

As mentioned :

There are 2 things you have to edit here.
1) - statuses/user_timeline/your twitter account name.json?
* - change the twitter account from forumotion to your twitter account

2) - twitterCallback2&count=1
* - my code only displays your last tweet. if you want the last 2 or 3 you have to change the "count" to your desired number of tweets. (don't go over 5 it doesn't look nice)

This is the code I put it.

Code:

<div class="twitterfeed">
    
   <div id="twitter_div" style="margin-left: 35px; padding-top: 3px;">
       
      <ul id="twitter_update_list" style=" list-style-image : url(http://hitskin.com/themes/13/34/38/i_icon_minipost_participate.png); font-size: 12px; line-height: 15px;">
          
         <li style="padding-top: 3px; padding-left 20px;">
              
         </li>
          
      </ul>
       
   </div>
    
   <p align="right" style="margin-top: 2px; font-size: 11px;">
      recently twittered on <a href="https://twitter.com/agamersgaming">AGG</a> 
   </p>
</div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/agamersgaming.json?callback=twitterCallback2&count=2"></script>

Could it be the /user_timeline/agamersgaming.json?, I put agamersgaming because that's the Twitter account.

This doesn't seem to work anymore : http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/agamersgaming.json?callback=twitterCallback2&count=2

There is a better way on twitter :
Go to Profile > Widgets > Create new > User timeline

Fill out the information, then click "Create widget" and copy the provided code to your widget.

That works.  Thank you.

(Might want to update that Tips & Tricks section, you might get more of these kind of threads lol)

You're welcome
