    I’ve tried creating the Twitter widget end it will not save. I copied my widget from Twitter like it said how to and every time I press save it won’t save and where I put the ID number in the spot goes blank.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,

    I’m afraid Twitter changed how the widget works on their end, so our widget no longer works. We found out about this only yesterday when Twitter announced the change, so it will be a while before we can fix our own widget to work with Twitters’s new code.

    For now, you can still get a widget ID that should work in our widget if you create a Search widget in Twitter. Set the search widget to your @username, and use the ID generated there in the Twitter Timeline Widget on your site. It doesn’t work perfectly, but it’s the closest solution that we have for now.

    Please let me know if you have any questions about this.
