Thread: "How to" embed Tweets

  1. #1

    Default "How to" embed Tweets

    I've seen this topic brought up in multiple threads and posts. I'm not an expert on this with both the smartphone app and a PC but perhaps someone on here would care to drop some knowledge.

    I haven't done it with my smartphone, but with the PC - click on the "..." which is the last option near the bottom of a tweet. From there, you'll see "embed" Copy and paste that into forum reply.

    I don't think it's possible to embed from the app unfortunately.

    When I get home I'll put some images together to show how to do it if no one beats me to it.

    One each tweet there is thre little dots or circles. Click on that and embed tweet is one of the options you can click on. Copy the info that pops up in the box then past directly here.

    Yeah I was going to say, its not hard on PC, I'm not sure if it even CAN be done on phones, but if so I'm sure one of the experts here will enlighten us.

    My guess would be to log on to your twitter from your mobile browser and try it that way. I haven't done that but I would think that would work

    One thing I noticed (on Computer). When I preview my post with the embedded tweet it looks fine. Then I click to post my comment and the tweet looks screwed up. (Something that made me believe I couldn't post correctly)

    But if I then reload the page, it is correctly posted.

    However, if i then edit the post for any reason, it screws up the tweet permanently.

    I attempted to embed a tweet on the recruiting forum just now and am not sure it's done well. I use a MacBook Air and do not see an"embed tweet" as an option from the "...." menu.

    I see a "Quote Tweet" and "Copy Tweet" option.

    Thoughts?

    I meant to look yesterday when I was at home but it slipped my mind. I'll give it a check this afternoon.

    You have to actually open the tweet, as in click on the timetag (or where it says posted xxmin ago) which should directly open the tweet. The the "..." button should have an option to Embed Tweet.

    Man I wish you could take over my computer remotely and see what I see and show me how. I've had Apple techs do that for me to help fix other issues.
