    Paul,
    Your twitter feed plug-in is the only one out there that does not follow my sidebar title formatting. But on the flipside yours is THE ONLY ONE that displays the twitter feed correctly.
    Is there any help you can give me?
    Also – please assume I no extremely little when it comes to adding code. Please be very specific what to put where.
    Here is my blog:

    Thanks! I’ve probably tested about a dozen twitter feed widgets. I really want to use yours!

    Can you upgrade to 1.0?
    This fix should resolve your header problem.

    It did – but now it created the problem that the other plugins had – the twitter post formatting is jacked. It was perfect in your previous version.

    This looks to be your themes CSS.
    The sidebar links in unordered lists look for a block structure:

    .sidebar-box ul li a:link, .sidebar-box ul li a:visited, .sidebar-box ul li a:active
    {
    display: block;
    color: #8c8c8c;
    width: 100%;
    padding-top: 3px;
    padding-right: 3px;
    padding-bottom: 3px;
    padding-left: 3px;
    background-image: none;
    }

    This is causing the expected behaviour in your theme. You need to try to remove/change the width:100%; and display:block; lines. You can try by adding this to the end of your themes style.css file:

    ul.twFeed li a:link, ul.twFeed  ul li a:visited, ul.twFeed
    {
    display: none;
    color: #8c8c8c;
    padding: 3px;
    background-image: none;
    }

    (Untested and off the top of my head).

    First line should have been:

    ul.twFeed li a:link, ul.twFeed ul li a:visited, ul.twFeed ul li a:active
    {
    display: none;
    color: #8c8c8c;
    padding: 3px;
    background-image: none;
    }

    Thanks Paul,
    Well the formatting looks tighter, but the twitter names and link (what would normally be clickable and show up in orange have disappeared.
    Funny thing – in your previous version all that was perfect (just the title was bad).

    When you say I need to try and remove/change the width and diplay lines – what do I change them to?
    Thoughts?

    Instead of display:none maybe use display:inline;?
    The display:none is obviously not showing the links.

    ul.twFeed li a:link, ul.twFeed ul li a:visited, ul.twFeed ul li a:active
    {
    display: inline;
    color: #8c8c8c;
    padding: 3px;
    background-image: none;
    }

    My previous version was missing two lines which correctly formatted the widget. The problem is 100% the fact that links in your sidebar are styled to display in a block at 100% width.

    Done! All I had to do next was to the orange color code for the inks and now everything is perfect. Thanks for working through this with me. I totally appreciate it.

    Although… some links don’t display in color and some do… any idea what the difference is?

    Looks good, checked there and all links seem to be working fine.

    Interesting. It seems to be only Safari that some of the links are grey and some are orange. Firefox and Chrome display it perfect.

    Grand. We will leave the topic as theme related (css based) and resolve this.
