Open dlebauer opened 4 months ago
Let me assign this to myself and check once what is most feasible, but currently my bandwidth is low might take a week or two to come to this, if anyone is interested they can take it in the meantime.

~the fix was fairly simple so I went ahead and fixed it; PR incoming~
As far as I can tell based on googling around, the widget requires the person viewing the website to be logged into twitter to view the tweets. Here is one announcement from UC Berkeley's Open Berkeley web framework from Sept 2023 that they are deprecating the use of embedded twitter feeds because of this known issue. https://open.berkeley.edu/news/twitter-widget-will-be-deprecated
Still in my testing list... things have piled up at my work, barely surviving, I will try to get to this by End of month/ Early next month
sorry for the delay, was hella busy.
@dlebauer , i found a workaround for this, I found a SaaS: https://elfsight.com/
They have a free tier by which we can have embedded tweets on our website. but this requires us to login and then authenticate the twitter account of which we want to see tweets. Maybe you can login via our official twitter there and share with me the script which gets generated?
Have a youtube video to for the tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gUnNsmfQDM
Or should we remove the feed altogether, do let me know of the next steps there, thanks for the patience :)
Currently the twitter feed does not display on the homepage, do we want to fix this or remove it?
