Chad: My suspicion was correct. Your theme does not wrap widgets in list items like shown on this page. http://codex.wordpress.org/Widgets_API#Register_Single_Sidebar That means my plugin is awkwardly coded in your sidebar, and this is probably why it looks odd to you.

Corey I am not sure what you mean my list element. Have a look at http://getmoneymarketing.net/leslie/ to see what I am talking about. Thanks for your help.

Chad: Does your theme put each widget in your sidebar in a list element? I try to play nice with the WP recommendations in theme development, but not all theme authors are on board.

I noticed when I place the widget above another widget there isnt any spacing between the bottom of WordPress latest twitter sidebar widget and the widget beneath. How can I add spacing after the WordPress latest twitter sidebar widget?

Hi Corey,

I have the plug-in working in my sidebar, however it disappears from time to time saying, “No data available on twitter.com for user” when in fact there is.
Any help you could provide would be most appreciated!!

Thanks,
Karen

Oh, one more thing: how do I make links open in a new window instead of the one my website is open in?

Thanks.

Hi,

I agree with the people saying this is currently the best Twitter-embedding plugin for WordPress – it works like a charm. :)

I do, however, have on question: how do I customize the font and size of the widget title? I have figured it out for the text and links in the feed but I cannot make it work for the title.

Regards.

If you want the links posted on the twitter to open in a new window;

edit this file latest-twitter-sidebar-widget/latest_twitter_widget.php

find this:
$index[$url->indices[0]] = “url.”\”>”.$url->url.””;

replace it with

$index[$url->indices[0]] = “url.”\” target=\”new\”>”.$url->url.””;

Save the file.

links will now be opened in new window
