GG Twitter

Lets you display a twitter feed in a sidebar widget.
Caches last successful tweet retrieval and only updates if it successfully gets a new list from Twitter.
Practically every element has a unique class so that it’s highly customizable via CSS.

There are various configuration options including:

• Title
• Twitter Username
• Max Tweets to Display
• HTML to override the View All link
• Time Placement (whether or not the timestamp should appear before or after the tweet)
• Time Format (uses PHP’s date() function for formatting)

1. Upload gg-twitter.php to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2. Activate the Plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
3. Configure your Twitter API authentication information in WP Dashboard / Settings / GG Twitter
4. Install the new Widget through the ‘Widgets’ menu in WordPress

Make sure you configure your Twitter API authentication information in WP Dashboard / Settings / GG Twitter or no tweets will be displayed.
