    On the above and other sites I manage, the twitter timeline widget is no longer displaying tweets, instead just a boilerplate ‘Nothing to see here – yet – When they Tweet, their Tweets will show up here.’ message with a link to the feed on twitter. I assume this is down to Twitter API changes. Can you advise when a fix will be available of if I need to seek an alternative widget for this feature?

    Thanks

    Yeah I believe the problem is because twitter is currently only allowing logged in users to see tweets. So just need to know if there is a way round this using the api and (more importantly) will we have to pay!

    Also having this problem on a business site so it doesn’t look very good! Would other plugins work or is it all down to Twitter changing something? Any solution for this yet?

    Due to recent changes introduced by Twitter, certain services like automatic post sharing and Twitter Timeline widgets are not currently functioning.

    You can still share your posts to Twitter manually by pasting the post link into the body of your tweet.

    Is this permanent? so will the twitter widget be puled from jetpack as its still there, if it no longer functions im unsure why its still there

    Hello @stevedmma.

    If you’re referring to the Twitter Embed Block, this should keep working for now.

    However, our Jetpack Social users will see a notification letting them know auto-sharing to Twitter has been deprecated under their Jetpack Social dashboard.

    If you have additional questions, please feel free to start your own support thread here: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack/#new-topic-0

    Thanks!
