  Your widget is set to only show 2 tweets. Go to https://edenbaylee.wordpress.com/wp-admin/widgets.php to change yout Twitter Widget settings.

  Hi Kardotim, thanks for responding. Can you tell me what it should be set to? I’ve set it from 1 -20 and there is still no scrollbar.

  It does not allow for a “0” setting,

  I see. You can make your timeline taller or shorter by setting a height. The default is 400px which will normally show 2 or 3 of your most recent tweets (you can see the rest by scrolling)

  You can read more instructions about the widget at http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/twitter-timeline-widget/

  I appreciate your information, but I have read the support information and know about the default. I have changed the default up and down without success.

  It was only after trying all the options, reading other threads within the WP forums, and trying all possible combinations, all of which did not work, that I posted this question.

  Please tell me what I need to do to ADD the scrollbar. If you don’t have a solution, then let me know. I have no desire to waste my time and yours by going around in circles.

  Hi Kardotim, I just checked my site and the scrollbar is there. I did not change any of the settings.

  Did you fix it? eden

  Thank you so much, but how did you do it? Was it something I could not do myself?

  I’m just curious, and I do really appreciate the fix.

  I think I know, you removed the # of tweets. That was an option I did not think of. I thought I had to put a number ZERO in that space, which was not possible.

  Thank you again for your help. Have a great weekend,

  Yes, it seems when the number option is used it shows a fixed amount of tweets along the sidebar, without the scrollbar. I’ll update our documentation to make other users more aware about this feature.

  Thanks again!
