Add Twitter widget to new page (standard layout) in Tumblr? - hancake - 10-08-2012 03:00 PM Ok. What I want is to create the typical "about me" separate page on my tumblr and I want to have my tweets in it, but I've noticed that while using the standard layout, the code of the widget does not work (Of course I've pasted it in the HTML editing part). It does work however when using custom layout since it is meant for coding... and it also works in the Description space.. why is this? I do not know a great deal about codes as you can see, so I would appreciate a little guidance. Is there a way to make the widget work while using the standard layout? I just want to add my tweets at the end of the page. Also, I don't think it is because of the theme I'm using since I've checked by trying it in different blogs. Thank you in advance! This is the twitter widget, just in case: https://twitter.com/about/resources/widgets/widget_profile - deafeningachieve498 - 10-08-2012 03:08 PM Get the Twitter Button Share Code for Tumblr here. Choose the format you want. This is the code you get when you are not signed in to Twitter: <a href=”http://twitter.com/share” data-count=”horizontal”>Tweet</a><script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js”></script> Now you must add two extra elements to this Twitter Button code, they’re highlighted so you just need to copy and paste it in your own code, it always goes inside the <a> tag. <a href=”http://twitter.com/share” data-count=”vertical” data-url=”{permalink}” data-text=”{Title}”>Tweet</a><script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js”></script> Go to Customize >> Theme >> Use Custom HTML. There are seven types of posts, but you only need to paste the Twitter Button in the code that belongs to the posts you actually use, mostly it will be Text and Photos. Since the Tumblr Themes change from one to another, the exact location could vary, but it will always be within the Posts main tags, being the following: {block:Text} -{/block:Text} or {block:Photo} – {/block:Photo} We pasted the Twitter Code right before the tag {PostNotes} , for each of the posts types, it should most of the time be there since it shows the Likes and Reblogs you get. The key thing is that you try until the button shows right below your post content but before the notes. If you can’t manage to get it to work, leave a comment with your theme and tumblr blog and we’ll help you insert the twitter button > It's from a website. BTW.
