  I just added a twitter widget on my blog but was wondering how do I get my feed to display. right now the only thing up is “follow me @mrspetey” but no tweets are shown. This is for healthymommy4life.com. thank you in advance.

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

  Howdy,

  Twitter requires everyone to “register a widget” for their tweets to display on their own site. Once you register the widget with Twitter, you can copy and paste the Widget number into the settings for the Twitter widget on your sidebar for everything to work.

  Our instructions for this can be found here: http://support.wordpress.com/widgets/twitter-timeline-widget/

  If this was clearer than mud, please let me know. It is a bit confusing since Twitter calls it a widget and we’re talking about making a WordPress.com widget work :-)

  Cheers!

  Thank you so much for your quick response. I did set up a widget with twitter and copies and pasted it. But I still don’t see a twitter feed. Any other ideas?

  Hi,

  Did you copy/paste just the ID into the widget setting? The box is appearing as empty: http://d.pr/i/Y23G

  Just want to make sure before digging in deeper.

  Cheers!
