New Twitter Timeline Widget won't work!

Webkilde · 2013-04-04T10:25:24.000Z

How?

I wanted to post here that it’s important on Chrome to remember what extensions you have enabled.I have a Twitter and Facebook feed on my website, www.cjfluharty.com

I’m using Wordpress and embedding the code within a Theme. It always looked fine on my GS2 and iPad, but my Chrome browser NEVER loaded the widgets. I disabled “Disconnect” 5.3.0 and “Facebook Disconnect” 1.3.0 and all of the sudden, my site looks fine in Chrome. I sure hope that this helps you!

Been trying to get this to work for days. Yours is the only solution that worked. Somebody should post this up top. Thanks!

Just noticed my feed not working last week. After much tweaking and troubleshooting, following outdated responses, etc. Tony’s post below finally solved my problem.

This work for me. Put this in the header. Then put in the body the widget an it will work.

You need to add the following into your page header:

Then the widget embeded in the middle of the page starts working. I’m not sure why the code in the widget doesn’t work since it looks like it’s supposed to do the same thing, but I guess it’s just broken at the moment.

Hope this tip helps someone else

Hi, I can’t load platform.twitter.com/widgets.js or …css via http but https is ok. Why? If I visit my network with http it will just give a link (the embedded timeline won’t work), but if I visit it with https then it worked. Could anybody help me out.

Had the same problem on Safari (6.0.5), but not on Firefox, Chrome or Opera (all on Mac OS X 10.8.4).
Then wondered whether the “Do Not Track Me” extension active on Safari might be affecting display. Switched it off and the full widget appeared. I then switched it back on and enabled tracking from TweetMeme and Twitter Badge. The widget still appears! Hope this might be of help.

The latest widget rarely works on Firefox. It seems to work fine on IE and on mobile phones. When the page refreshes on firefox, it works only about 10% of the time. (my page is set to refresh about every 2 minutes)

Hello, this code not working… Why! “<a class=“twitter-timeline” data-dnt=“true” href=“https://twitter.com/HarshithSK” data-widget-id=“355907348830777344”>Tweets by @HarshithSK</a>

I don’t understand why I can embed a twitter timeline on our current site, but not on the one I’m developing on Google site. Why is the twitter gadget so inconsistent?

pls217 · 2013-08-17T01:02:46.000Z

I would love to adjust the domains box however, it is not an option in twitter setting… Where can I enable it?

kerrikochanski · 2013-08-18T13:15:42.000Z

I’m following the thread…Am disappointed, too…

RushSulaiman · 2013-08-22T00:05:23.000Z

Twitter, please fix the widget problem - the old one worked nicely but not this new one.

coloniell · 2013-08-27T13:39:54.000Z

I found the below and it seemed to indicated that it fixed the issue, but the text doesn’t say what the FIX is…can you help…we use this tool very often for rainout notifications and such for our Little League:

This widget worked fine and then just stopped working on day and hasn’t worked since.

If you have a public page with that problem could you just give the URL?

rokha · 2013-09-12T17:07:02.000Z

Works! i was trying to solve this problem for a couple a days (only shows the widget twitter on post, but not in home page) and only paste the code who @lopezpagan gives in the of my header.php file … and works

Thanks!

Will not let me create widget in setting click on create and the save new widget the goes to 403 Forbidden: The server understood the request, but is refusing to fulfill it.

TheRealTrent · 2013-09-22T19:58:16.000Z

If there isnt a fix, can we atleast have a date for when there will be a fix so we can all plan around this.

BlackheathWx · 2013-09-22T21:39:00.000Z

This link shows the Twitter Timeline Widget always working on all browsers I’ve tested, and his code is a bit different to the code that comes from the Twitter Widget code:

https://dev.twitter.com/docs/embedded-timelines

Why is it that his code works on all browsers but the code from the Twitter Widget doesn’t always work?

This morning, my Twitter Timeline is showing up in Firefox but not Chrome.

craigelliss · 2013-09-23T01:05:33.000Z

I too am having the issue where I sometimes (around 50-70% of the time) get “Tweets by @[insert username]” instead of the actual twitter feed widget displaying. The widgets.js script is already included in my page thanks to a Tweet button. Can someone please tell me why the feed isn’t working? It seems most of the responses on this thread are from a long time ago… yet the issue remains?
