Thanks, bashar042 - I changed the type from search to profile right after I posted here and it started working again.

Twitter is actually not working on my laptop. I think it might have something to do with widgets because its says i have none, but i dont know.
At the moment it looks like how twitter would look on an old nokia brick phone and i cant see any tweets at all.
Can you help me please ASAP?

This is not good, its not diplaying on my site either, after configuring the widget on the widgets tab on twitter, all i can see is just a html link tweets by @Diasporadialog, its frustrating right now.

After fighting with it I did some research…try this Plugin:

WordPress.org

Mini twitter feed

Embed your twitter feed or the twitter timeline from your favorite users on your WordPress blog. Shortcodes and widgets are used.

You can use a shortcode and put the feed right in to a page (not limited to using it as a sidebar widget). Up and running in 2 minutes. Yahoo!

That worked for me, too. Thanks for the tip!

The Twitter API has been recently updated and this started to affect some of our WordPress websites that use the GoodLayers Twitter Widget. It seemed to be affecting other twitter widgets as well.

We’ve found a solution that fixes it. Hopefully this helps:

It appears to be an issue related to the twitter service itself, i’m using customized and native widgets on everyone of my websites (+ 20) and it stopped working on each one of 'em

Ours fell over after about two weeks of use. Widget placed in a html site (not any sort of cms). Viewing the widget in the account does not show a preview. Not browser, machine or IP specific, just stopped displaying. Pissed, as its designed into our site and without it the layout suffers.

seems like twitter’s support for its own API’s is always shaky. had the feed widget for a few years and it was on and off frequently. Then they ‘evolved’ their strategy, which means they broke their other stuff. Now the new stuff doesn’t work either. Is it supposed to start working in March 2013 when the other stuff is scheduled to break? Personally, I love it. It’s great when you are the one responsible for social media integration, using fine china that the developers are constantly ‘evolving’ with a sledgehammer.

Was testing page WITHOUT www. TWTR.Widget was blank. As soon as I added the www to the URL, back in business.

I have the same problem you had . Could you solve the proxy traffic limitation? I have a favorite widged in an institutional page andad in all the computers of the internal net (proxy) sometimes the widget appear in blank. Thank you for your help.

Hi, I just wanted to say I have got the widget to work after 2 days of trying things, basically did all mentioned here, checked domain, sub domain, etc but the prob was adding html via a WISYWIG editor. I turned it off via ‘settings’, ‘appearance’, ‘default wisywig editor’ in my software programme and then entered the code in the html block and it worked first time. Had to share this as nearly reprogrammed computer with an axe!

For all of the people struggling to get their twitter widgets to work, I have a better widget: http://www.tintup.com

It lets you customize the look, import other social media, and you can embed it into a variety of platforms.
