WordPress received a set of plugin updates today. \u00a0The Jetpack plugin was updated to version 2.5 resolving an issue of the Twitter widget not displaying tweets. \u00a0The issue had to\u00a0deal with the Twitter widget ID not being saved properly in Jetpack’s Twitter widget. \u00a0A Twitter site owner needs to create a Twitter widget first in twitter.com as a pre-requisite to using this WordPress widget. \u00a0The widget works properly now.<\/p>\n
You know there’s a however coming next, right?<\/p>\n
However, certain browser add ons or extensions may prevent it from displaying properly. \u00a0In the event that you still do not see the Twitter timeline, then first clear the browser cache and settings (Google it if you don’t know how), and see if it works. \u00a0If that does not work, then disable your add ons and figure out which add-on was preventing it from being displayed by re-enabling the add-ons (Firefox) or extensions (Chrome) one at a time to figure out which one.<\/p>\n
The other plugins that were updated were: \u00a0SI Captcha, WordPress SEO, and WP-PostRatings. \u00a0Please go to the respective plugin sites to look at what was updated for these.<\/p>\n
In between terms, we will be looking to upgrade the WordPress version to the latest, as that change will be more involved and require a longer period of downtime.<\/p>\n
