Help: Twitter Widget not Working

IAGSDC · 2013-07-02T17:16:18.000Z

Is it true that Twitter has abandoned the widget? That’s a shame - our users (we are a non-profit) loved having our tweets pop up on our home page. We’ve tried all the solutions listed in this thread, regenerated the code a few times etc - never got it to work. And I see the widget output doesn’t even show up if I go to the widget generator page using Chrome - it only shows up if I use IE. I guess API v1.1 has made the widget impossible?

Twitter…please fix this. I’ve tried all the suggestions and no luck with iWeb (yeah I’m a dinosaur).

It’s not simple for me - I don’t see any “domain area”. where am I supposed to type what you suggest?

VibeDetective · 2013-08-22T01:02:27.000Z

enter EVERY SINGLE domain where?

vincentisambart · 2013-08-22T05:25:27.000Z

There is no need to configure domains anymore, the widget should work on any domain.

I have this problem since three days ago and nothing I read in this topic was useful to me. Any help?

anbar_a · 2013-09-22T15:35:51.000Z

Had the same issue, I just copied the code presented in the settings page again, Now it works.

wmphoto0co0uk · 2013-09-22T16:52:30.000Z

I don’t know if this is close to being resolved, but I thought I may as well put my hat in the ring. I have made the one simple change that has been recommended, adding the http: to the code and it still doesn’t work.

Also, my widget disappearing from my website was the first indication I had that twitter have changed things again, when I went back to the configurator I noticed that the new code was considerably different from the old one. I notice there is no option to set the width of the widget any-more, does anyone know if this means that the widget whenever it does start working will be wide?

I just created the timeline widget yesterday. It worked fine, then suddenly after a few reloads I just see the link. I copied the same code twice in the source, reloaded and I saw two widgets. I deleted one, reloaded and the widget was displayed again. I made some changes on the page, but not in the widget. I see the link again. Later I see the widget again, then later only the link? What is going on?

RockThatSwingDE · 2013-09-23T11:56:51.000Z

This is really weird. If I duplicate the same widget code in the document, the first code section produces the link, the second (duplicated code) produces the widget. If I delete any of the two the page only shows the link!

Mike_T_Barber · 2013-10-18T15:03:24.000Z

This does NOT work for me. Go to http://beta.brantleyswesternsupply.com/aspx and see it NOT working. I have tried changing this to http:// and NO Joy ! There is no place to enter the “domain” anymore, so that solution is deprecated!. Otherwise, I do not know why this is not working. However, look, look same code and it works fine at http://beta.brantleyswesternsupply.com/test.htm.

Mike_T_Barber · 2013-10-18T15:27:01.000Z

Ok, here is the problem. You need to specify a “height” that the widget display will fit in in the widget control panel. If you keep the default height of 600 px but in your html document, the height is only say 300 px, then it will just display the tweets by language. To see if that is the problem, or to debug the widget, always create a blank test.htm page with the twitter widget only and see if that works. If that works, then you probably a problem in your html page where you are constraining the display of the widget.

Thanks Valleilijn, the above worked for me using Squarespace 5 which was stripping our parts of the code. However, I had to put the scripts (numbers 1 and 3 above) into the header code (using code injection) and not in the page html.

I have been trying to fix the problem with the twitter feed widget on my blog since yesterday. I have been searching all over the web for different solutions from people that are having the same problem. On my blog instead of displaying my latest tweets (as in the preview while creating a widget) it just says “tweets by @andreitandri”

CappellaniaR3 · 2013-11-15T20:01:54.000Z

My Twitter Timeline just broke today, was working fine until yesterday or the day before. Adding “http” or “https” doesn’t do anything. If I try to inject the script manually into the page using Chrome’s Console, I still get some kind of an error:
(anonymous function)
InjectedScript._evaluateOn
InjectedScript._evaluateAndWrap
InjectedScript.evaluate

schiles · 2013-11-15T23:40:43.000Z

I’ll go ahead and climb on here and say with no changes to my widget, it just stopped working on my page. Cries for help seem to be in vein but what the hell - HELP!

I tried all changes outlined on this thread over the last year to no avail.

MayhemComics · 2013-11-17T16:55:09.000Z

crap, nothing suggested in this thread is working to resolve the same problem for us. the widget continues to appear as a link only.

ECASGroup · 2013-12-01T18:41:34.000Z

where?

Please post a full answer for those of us who are struggling with this issue.

Or the code please?

Thanks
