- Upload ‘simple-twitter-tweets’ to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
- Add the Widget to your page (e.g. Sidebar) and update the required details

- Note: You will need to create a Twitter Application – See below. Oh, it’s really easy.
Creating a Twitter Application
The Twitter Widget will never ask for your password, as it gets all your required data from the Open Authentication keys and secrets you will get by creating your application at Twitter. It also means that if you change your password, you wonβt need to update any of the details of your Widget.
To find these details, go to https://apps.twitter.com/ and sign in.
Center of the screen click “Create a New Application.”
Enter a unique name (anything you want), a description (again this is just for you), and your site’s URL. You can leave the Callback URL empty as it is not used for this implementation.
Yay, success – OK! You will be taken to a new screen, there’s one more step then you can copy all the details into correct fields of the Widget and be on your way.
OK, click the “Create my Access Token” button. This is a shortcut to authenticate your own account with your application (so you never need use your password).
Good. Now click the Details Tab as all the information you need is presented hereso you can just copy the required information into the exact corresponding inputs fields of the Widget.
