Twitter widget sidebar

Hello, even though it LOOKS like my twitter widget is set to have a scrollbar, it doesn’t appear on my site! Please help! Thank you.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi!
Currently, you have the widget setup to show a maximum of 5 tweets. The 5 tweets can fit in the size designed for the widget. You can see a screenshot of the setup here:
If you would like the widget to be scrollable, you will need to either A) increase the amount of tweets shown or B) decrease the size of the Twitter widget so that the tweets will not all fit in the window at one time. Can you give either of those options a try and let me know if that enables scrolling?

Nope!! Tried it with 7/8/9 tweets. No scrollbar. Tried it with max 300/200/100 px. Still no scrollbar.
Almost about to give up!

Weird – it’s working for me when I create a widget on Twitter. Can you try starting from the top one last time? Start here:
https://twitter.com/settings/widgets
Select the appropriate type of widget (Tweets by Your Name) most likely. Leave the configuration settings as the default values (300 for the height) like this (your color may be different):
Then, copy and paste the unique widget ID from the URL into the widget. Let me know once you’ve done that!

Sorry for missing this the first time around! You should now see a scrolling bar. The issue was that we had a definitive amount of tweets to show (10). I changed that to 0, and the scrollbar is now appearing. Let me know if you’re not seeing it on your side!
