A simple plugin that allows you to include a Twitter feed on any page or post within your WordPress website. All you need to do is configure the plugin with your Twitter handle and your Twitter access tokens and you are good to go, from there you can include <code>[display_twitter]</code> and the feed will appear.
You can choose how many Tweets will appear, whether to include ReTweets in the list, whether to include replies in the list and whether you want to the Tweets to scroll. Selecting the scroll option will set the Tweets to show in a ‘ticker’ style one after the other automatically.
The plugin is designed to be easily styled, we do not include any default CSS so as not to interfere with the current styling of your site. Each Tweet is a simple <code><li></code> element that can be easily styled.

Barebones Twitter

Simple plugin for adding Twitter to your Wordpress install via a shortcode by @AaronPFisher

Martin Tod

<ul>
<li>Replaces a <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode" rel="nofollow ugc">shortcode</a> such as <code>[rotatingtweets screen_name='your_twitter']</code>, or a <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Widgets" rel="nofollow ugc">widget</a>, with a rotating display of your most recent tweets</li>
<li>Supports the <a href="https://dev.twitter.com/overview/api/upcoming-changes-to-tweets" rel="nofollow ugc">new longer tweet format</a></li>
<li>Supports <a href="https://blog.twitter.com/official/en_us/topics/product/2017/tweetingmadeeasier.html" rel="nofollow ugc">280 characters</a></li>
<li>Space efficient – instead of showing all your tweets at once, shows one at a time and then smoothly replaces it with the next one. After showing all your tweets, loops back to the beginning again.</li>
<li>Reliable – keeps showing your latest Tweets even if the Twitter website is down.</li>
<li>Customizable – you decide whose tweets to show, how many to show, whether to include retweets and replies, and whether to show a follow button. You can also decide how quickly the tweets rotate and what type of animation to use.</li>
<li>Responsive – resizes as your page resizes</li>
<li>GDPR-friendly – with default settings, collects no user data and shares no user data (including IP addresses) with anyone else. Supports ‘Do Not Track’ (DNT).</li>
<li>Gives you the option to show a fully customizable Twitter ‘follow’ button. For note, because of the way Twitter’s code for the Twitter button works, the button will display as a regular text link to site visitors who have set ‘Do Not Track’.</li>
<li>Replaces <a href="http://t.co" rel="nofollow ugc">t.co</a> links with the original link</li>
<li>Caches the most recent data from Twitter to avoid problems with rate limiting</li>
<li>Uses <a href="http://jquery.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">jQuery</a>, <a href="http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/" rel="nofollow ugc">jQuery.Cycle</a> and <a href="http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle2/" rel="nofollow ugc">jQuery.Cycle2</a> to produce a nice smooth result.</li>
<li>Compatible with <a href="/plugins/w3-total-cache/" rel="nofollow ugc">W3 Total Cache</a>.</li>
<li>Multi-lingual – now set up to be multi-lingual. The Twitter ‘follow’ button is automatically translated to match your site’s language setting <a href="https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/developer-utilities/supported-languages/api-reference/get-help-languages" rel="nofollow ugc">if Twitter has made the appropriate language available</a>. Also uses <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/I18n_for_WordPress_Developers" rel="nofollow ugc">WordPress’s multi-lingual capability</a> to enable translation of all the other text used by the plug-in via <a href="https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/rotatingtweets" rel="nofollow ugc">language packs</a>.</li>
</ul>
