Redeemer Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I'm asking on behalf of another member who was having difficulty embedding a set of tweets. Instead, he made a picture of all the tweets just until we figure this out. I've tried figuring it out but I've just confuzzied myself. How do I embed tweets in a forum post?

Icy Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Is that even possible? Twitter's "Embed" code is in HTML, and you can't paste HTML code here and expect it to show up properly. I don't see any BBCode alternatives except for something like this: http://punyweakling.com/add-a-tweet-bbcode-for-a-phpbb-forum/ But that's for phpBB.

DZComposer Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 I can create custom BBCode in the Admin panel. Problem with twitter is that it relies of off-site javascript. Also, the embed code twitter gives on tweets cannot be used programatically. There is an API, but other IPB users are reporting that the method there doesn't work due to the way javascript is used.Maybe this will change in IPB 4, but for now, there is no reliable way to embed tweets into an IPB board.
