  twitter: I’ve tried copying and pasting the shortcode (including substituting my twitter username) for following twitter to one of my pages and then publishing but it only reprints the code to that page.

  Am I doing something wrong or does my theme not support this function?

  Please help

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

  This is not a theme related issue. Have you used this step by step guide?

  What is the Twitter URL that you entered into the widget?
  https://twitter.com/kengolds
  Sorry, that page doesn’t exist!

  Here is the Twitter URL is…
  Follow @KennedyGoldsby
  <script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?’http’:’https’;if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+’://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js’;fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document, ‘script’, ‘twitter-wjs’);</script>
  I tried pasting this. And I tried my username @kennedygoldsby – but to no avail.

  any more suggestions would be appreciated.

  thank you,
  Kennedy
