Help: Twitter Widget not Working

iHeavyHaul · 2013-01-02T10:46:48.000Z

I got it from one of the replies above - thank you so very much!

GOTO: Widgets, Edit and in the Domains window type: yourdomain.com , www.yourdomain.com - mine came right back up.

NICE!

<a class="twitter-timeline" data-dnt=true href="https://twitter.com/fjmdesigns" data-widget-id="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx">Tweets by @fjmdesigns</a>

<script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src="platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs");</script>

Did you whistle at least?

howmindworks · 2013-01-26T13:37:16.000Z

ok it’s simple. it’s domain thing.
in domain area, type your domain with and without www.
for example
youdomain.com, www.yourdomain.com and it should be working.

lennyruiz7 · 2013-01-27T15:04:26.000Z

i had the same problem and it works for me, just type both: domain.com, www.domain.com

Thought I’d post this here in case people haven’t sorted it yet. This worked for me:

Change the pathway that everyone was talking about, adding the http://
Enter EVERY SINGLE domain i.e. mine was www.example.blogspot.com, example.blogspot.com, www.example.blogspot.co.uk, example.blogspot.co.uk… Mine was working on my previews only because I initially had my blog previews directing to “.co.uk” and when I added the “.com” extensions too it seemed to work… Hopefully this CONTINUES to work, Twitter!!

Just to point out that the // prefix is perfectly valid syntax as per [RFC 3986: “Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic Syntax”, Section 4.2.] and should not be changed unless you can guarantee the protocol used for accessing the domain will always match that of the script. IE. http: https:

The // prefix simply tells the browser to access the script via the pages current protocol. If your page uses https the script path will also use https. This rule was layed out in 2005 and should be implemented in all browsers for the last 7 years.

The above problem should be solely down to the domain name whitelist.

Thank you! This worked for me. This twitter widget had been a pain in my ass, nothing was working.

tarekelnemrawy · 2013-03-02T20:52:27.000Z

a solution worked for me
in the widget settings
just type your domain in this format : domain.com

FortyThreeNorth · 2013-03-07T21:32:00.000Z

Okay fixed this finally.

The script is given to you like this

Where is says platform.twitter.com/widget.js

you need to add http://

So it looks like this

rmattivi · 2013-03-08T12:10:21.000Z

What domain should I specify to make it work within a phonegap app?

vickiejeanc · 2013-03-13T16:56:07.000Z

With your suggestion it worked in Firefox. Testing further. Thank you, way to much time to fix their code? Really? You rock.

On Chrome - Have added both woodbourne.weebly.com with www.woodbourne.weebly.com into domain box. comma used in between. Get correct results on twitter configurator but after cut and paste code into HTML editor on page creator and publish “Hmm, empty timeline, that’s weird”. With a button “Check for tweets”. After two clicks, not one, this will open a full twitter page with expected page - Defeats the object of embedded the twitter feed!!! See bottom of page http://woodbourne.weebly.com/current-news.html for example.

COME ON TWITTER guys - PLEASE fix problems as is obviously a problem as many people are and have been demonstrating for some time.

KaresseMilanXXX · 2013-03-27T21:43:09.000Z

KaresseMilanXXX · 2013-03-27T21:43:59.000Z
