Easy Way to Show Tweets on Your Website

Thanks to our client Good Life Family Magazine for this question:

Q: How can we show our Twitter feed on our website and control the length or number of posts to display?

A: To show tweets on your website you may add an embedded timeline to a text/HTML page (or in WordPress, place code in a widget area) using HTML obtained from publish.twitter.com

Length of Feed: When configuring timeline HTML on publish.twitter.com you may select “set customization options” and enter a height value.

Number of Posts: You may specify a specific number of Tweets to display by adding a data-tweet-limit attribute to the generated link with the number of Tweets you would like to display. For example add data-tweet-limit=”1″.

Using the HTML generated for Good Life Family Magazine as an example below, replace “https://twitter.com/GLFmagazine” with your Twitter page link/URL and “Tweets by GLFmagazine” with your own text:
