1. The article already has a link to a widget editing tutorial.

2. Any visual styling the widget has is taken from your blog’s theme. You’ll have to edit that. Note, there are already replies in these comments about editing CSS.

Short answer: you can't. The javascript that builds the feed is hosted on twitter.com. You can't edit it. Long answer: maybe. This is the javascript that builds the feed. You could copy it, edit it to taste and host it on your own site, copyright/legal issues permitting.

Hi Sean,

I’m using your widget on http://www.sapnamagazine.com. It’s great! Two questions:

(1) how do I edit the code so that a profile pic thumbnail is shown at the top?

(2) how can I delete that gray bar from the top? that’s my widget header background, but I don’t want this widget to have a title (since I added another text widget on top as my title).

Thanks in advance!! loving the widget.

Jeff, look in the source code of any page the widget is supposed to appear on for the string “twitter_div”. This means the widget is installed OK. The display of tweets relies on Javascript and if the tweets aren’t appearing it’s *probably* because there’s some other (poorly written) Javascript on your page that’s conflicting.

Color me stupid, but I cannot get this to show up in my widgets. I am running 2.9.1 with News Magazine Theme 640 1.6.8 by antisocialmediallc.com and just getting it configured. I had to create a [widgets] folder where indicated as there was not one. It did not show up in the widgets section, so I uploaded to [plugins] and activated, but still cannot see it. Any thoughts to help out a moron?

Thanks
