  I would like to insert my tweets in the sidebar using the twitter timeline widget in the Fontfolio theme. However, when I paste the following shortcode [twitter-timeline id=434413962025644032 username=jvandevo] in the appropriate field and I push the ‘save’ button, the code dissappears from the field. No tweets are being displayed.

  Please help.
  Jonathan.

  Hi,

  Did you paste the shortcode in a Text widget? If I remember correctly, the text widget does not accept shortcodes, so it outputs nothing. That shortcode will only work inside a Post/Page.

  As an alternative, try using the Twitter Timeline widget instead. Details here:
