    Hello, I have a hashtag feed on the homepage of my client’s website, and an inappropriate tweet showed up. The tweet has since been deleted from Twitter. I have tried clearing the Twitter cache, but it still shows up on the homepage. I read in another thread that tweets are stored indefinitely – where are they stored? An SQL search turned up nothing… Thanks!

    I did manage to hide it with CSS – because it has a numeric ID, I had to use a unicode character instead of the first number.

    Sorry about this issue!

    The posts are stored in a single wp_options table entry as a JSON string so it would likely be difficult to find them with an SQL search.

    The best option is what you came up with, using the ID of the tweet to hide it with CSS. Typically you wouldn’t need a unicode character but I’m glad you were able to hide it.

    Let me know if you have any more questions.
