What You Will Learn

How to insert a Twitter feed onto your page

You can insert a Twitter feed in the right column which will rotate through the most recent tweets of a specified Twitter account.

  1. In your Building Blocks folder, create a new component with the schema "Twitter Feed."
  2. Enter the Twitter account name in the "Twitter Name" field. You do not need to add the "@"
  3. Enter the number of seconds you would like to elapse between new tweets appearing the widget in the "Interval Field."
    • Because Twitter has a limit on how many Tweets you can pull per hour, 3 seconds is the recommended minimum interval.
  4. Save & Close.
  5. Go into the Root folder of your publication, and open the Structure Group and then the page that will house your Twitter Feed.
  6. Insert the component on the page and select the "Twitter Feed Widget" from the Component Template menu.
  7. Save & Close. Then publish!
