Extra Sidebar Widgets – Twitter Timeline

Update 2023: Due to updated to Twitter’s API you can no longer use the twitter widget to embed your timeline. This is due to changed made by Twitter (now X)

You can see the results of leaving a timeline widget  on the left side of this page.

You can still embed an individual tweet.

  1. Turn on Jetpack Plugin: Dashboard->Plugins
  2. Activate the Extra Sidebar Widgets: Dashboards-> Jetpack->Settings
  3. In the Widget Area of your Dashboard add the twitter timeline widget.
  4. Add your twitter username to the widget and that is it.

Twitter Widget Settings

On this post we use the Widget Visibility jetpack feature only to show the twitter timerline widget for @glowscot’s tweets. You will only see it on this post in single post view.

One thought on “Extra Sidebar Widgets – Twitter Timeline”

  1. Hi and thanks for this helpful site. I’m trying to add unique Twitter feeds on different pages of my glow blog rather than having the same feed on every page. Is there a way to do this?
