  Hello there! I took a look at your site and saw that you installed the Twitter widget in your primary sidebar. Can you please double-check at Twitter that the Widget ID is correct? Also, what is your Twitter user name? I’d like to see what Tweets should be appearing on your Timeline.

  Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks very much.

  Michelle_AA_Jhb. So should the widget be put elsewhere if not in the primary sidebar? I will double check the number again and try again. Appreciate the response and hope you will be able to help me sort this out.

  You should be able to put that widget in your sidebar.

  As a test, please tell me what happens when you embed the following Twitter shortcode into one of your posts or pages:

  [twitter-timeline id=1234 username=yourhandle]

  Just fill in the correct timeline ID and user name before saving.

  Looking forward to hearing how this goes, and settling your social networking widget issues! Thanks much.
