  Hi there,

  Can you please clarify exactly what you want to do? If you want to integrate your Twitter account with WordPress.com, please view the link below:

  Add an X (Twitter) Follow Button

  You can put a Twitter Timeline Widget on your blog to display your tweets using this guide:

  If you want to tweet about your published blog posts you can set up the Publicize Twitter connection as seen here:

  If this doesn’t answer your question, please clarify exactly what you are looking for and I’d be happy to help you look for a solution!

  Hi there,

  Twitter Cards are supported by default by WordPress.com, so whenever you share a Twitter card should show up. Paste the link to one of your blog posts here:

  You can see a preview of it there.

  Cheers!
