<h3>Notes</h3>
To generate a twitter widget in your pages, here is a shortcode with all the attributes:
[tgw title=”Title for twitter widget” subject=”Caption for twitter widget” username=”Twitter User Name” search=”Twitter search string” type=”Either (search|list|faves|profile)” list=”Twitter List Name”]
Look at one of the twitter widget options in your admin panel, or also on the twitter site <a href="twitter.com/goodies/widgets" rel="nofollow ugc">twitter.com/goodies/widgets</a> to see what combination you need for which widget type.

Twitter Goodies Widgets

Uses the twitter goodies widgets API to create offical twitter widgets (profiles, lists, faves and search) straight from your control panel.
