I have a mixed content error due to HTTP instead of HTTPS

Yup, you should update to the version 1.3.7+ 🙂 Thanks!

The Twitter Bird image doesn’t appear! What’s happened?

Sorry, I don’t know. Try to uninstall/install the plugin or just pick up the image in the svn repository.

Why the widget show me an error of load for my tweets ?

First: do you have the latest version of this plugin?
Second: did you find the settings page, create your Twitter plugin?

My tweets are not always updated

Since the v1.1.3, the cache system prefers keep your old tweets instead of displaying a error message due to a lack of tweets inside the Twitter flow. It’s a kind of security: old tweets are better than error message 🙂

You need to custom the design, hide something ?

You can use lot of CSS classes and filters to help you in you quest 🙂
See the documentation.html files inside your plugin folder !

The plugin makes the site insecure through mixed content. Images are not showing up, links are opening in the same window so the person that clicks leaves the site. These matters where addressed years ago, but it seems there is no development for years. Choose another plugin, please

The plugin generally works well, but causes mixed content in an https environment. For whatever reason, the plugin loads both your secure Twitter avatar and the same image from a “http” location. There is probably a way around this if you are proficient in editing javascript, but I am not. I was able to resolve this issue simply by replacing the shortcode string that shows the avatar from avatar=”1″ (shows the avatar) to avatar=”0″ (does not show the avatar). If the author were to solve this issue in the plugin I would give it a 5 star rating. I’m not the first person to have this issue.
