Twitter Block

Use the Twitter block to embed tweets into your posts and pages.

Note: You don’t need a Twitter account to be able to use it. You can only embed public tweets, though.

How to add the Twitter block

To add the Twitter block, click on the + Block Inserter icon and search for “Twitter.” Click it to add the block to the post or page.

You can also type /Twitter on a new line, and press enter to quickly add a new Twitter block.

Single Tweet

To embed a tweet means that you can display an individual tweet on your site that includes:

  • The tweet’s text, images, and links.
  • Action buttons for Twitter users to retweet and favorite tweets without leaving your site.
  • Links to hashtag pages, usernames, and a follow button.

The quickest way to embed a tweet is to paste the URL of the tweet on an empty line in the editor.

To find the URL, locate the tweet you want to post. Then click the timestamp to open a new page for that individual tweet. Copy the URL from the address bar and paste it onto your Twitter block.

You can also click the down arrow at the top right of the tweet on Twitter to find the Copy Link to Tweet option.

Select the share icon and Copy link to Tweet, as shown in the image.

Twitter also has an ‘Embed Tweet’ option with a code. This method is not supported, so make sure to use the link instead.

Here’s how a single tweet looks when embedded:
