Description
This plugin adds a ‘tweet’ shortcode to embed tweets using Twitter’s shortcode format,
for example:
[tweet https://twitter.com/OnionSports/status/145262716104351747 ]
- The plugin uses Twitter’s statuses/oembed API endpoint to retrieve embedded tweets identified by the id at the end of the url in the shortcode parameter
- It caches retrieved tweets on the server to minimize API usage.
- Optionally, it adds the necessary javascript from Twitter in document
<head>. - Allows you to control the width of the embedded tweet.
- Fixes a
clear:both;issue in Twitter’s CSS. - Tweet functionality (e.g., retweet and follow buttons) can be displayed in multiple languages.
