twitter feed block?

Posted: Tue Apr 17, 2012 3:39 pm

I've done a few searches, and tried a few things myself...... (fail!) Laughing

Does a "simple" block exist, that can show the latest tweets from twitter, either "statically" with the option fro them to update periodically, or scroll, even (such as there used to be a scrolling forums block)

I've got a facebook one, using their "create badge" type option...

Help / feedback appreciated Wink

installed; thanks.

Would it not be "more consistent" to use existing css as opposed to creating (if required) css for users themes? (ie. use the forum parts instead?)

Just a thought.... Wink

Also; is there a way to make it like the forums centre block I have on my site? Top line scrolls through the latest posts; expand shows them individually?

I sound like I'm ungrateful; I'm not- thanks for this Wink

It has a default css style that can be overridden to match different themes background and text colors. If a theme does not have a file named tweet.css in the style folder, it uses the one in the twitter folder. That should have been in the install instructions. Just as the forums all have style sheets in the themes style folder, this block can too. It is this way so if different users have different themes selected, the block can match them all as opposed to only one style for all.

You should be able to add scroll. I have no need for a scrolling block as I find them to be annoying.
