Search Widget for Websites does not show anything at times

Why does the twitter for websites “Search Widget” on my website sometimes not show anything? For example it might be working fine but then I change the search term (to a valid term) and nothing?

Thanks!!

Sometimes it’s due to rate limiting on a specific IP address.

When you change search terms, are you changing to terms that have results to display (results within the last week or so?)

Thanks for the reply - I tried “cat” just to be sure i was using a search term that would have results.

Perhaps it is a rate limiting issue
