Twitter

To add twitter timelines or searches to a page, the owner of the account must create a twitter widget.

  • Log into twitter and go here: https://twitter.com/settings/widgets
  • Click 'Create New' and configure as needed.
  • When you click on the blue 'Create Widget' icon you'll be given some code which looks something like this:

<a class="twitter-timeline" href="https://twitter.com/NU_ITservice" data-widget-id="425662514961985538">Tweets by @NU_ITservice</a>
<script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+"://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs");</script>

  • Copy it using "Ctrl+C", and return to T4.
  • Within T4's 'All Purpose Content' type, click on the 'Edit HTML Source' icon.
  • A popup window will appear: paste the code into that, and it will then be embedded in the page.

Information on embedding twitter, maps, audio, video and other media files can be found on our T4 support blog.
