Recent Tweets Widget plugin for Twitter API v1.1 with Cache. It uses the new Twitter API v1.1 and stores tweets in the cache. It means that it will read status messages from your database and it doesn’t query Twitter.com for every page load so you won’t be rate limited. You can set how often you want to update the cache.

Worked fine for a couple of years, suddenly this week causes a huge layout problem with ANY theme and WP 5.2.4. Disabling this plugin completely fixes the problem.

Very good widget, shame it's not SSL ready - it contains http hardcoded links, so by using it you automatically agree to have your HTTPS website being not fully protected.

No complexity, no need of any authentication. Simple to use.

Once you figured out how to get the API key and other secret codes, the widget (find it in the appearance > widgets ) is pretty straight forward. I would love to be able to modify the look of the tweets but those features are not there yet.

This plugin has been compromised. It is redirecting to a spam site. Deactivating the plugin resolved the issue.
