 * Hi,
 * I see similar posts that were not resolved with the same issue.
 * I had this working all fine and the widget was working fine.
 * I edited some size parameters and saved the widget and now it does not return
   any tweets.
 * I believe this is to do with the way that you have to select the rules that the
   widget uses. i.e. Click, CTRL click etc.
 * I don’t believe that the selection is being saved.
 * If you can tell me where the widget information about the selected rules is saved
   in the database i will manually edit it.
 * otherwise would it be possible to change your rule selection method to use tick
   boxes next to the rules?
 * thanks,
 * James
 * PS as a temporary fix i am using a short code, but i am losing the formatting
   that i get from the widget.

 * Did you created the rule with a custom query?

 * Does it display anything if you select “Debug” in the template option? Also make
   sure the rule is selected in the Select Rules option.

 * Just select only one rule which is created by screen name and see if tweets are
   loaded.

 * If you go to Dashboard -> Fetch Tweets -> Manage Rules, and click on the view
   link of the rule which you are trying to display in a widget, do you see tweets?

 * yes i see tweets for all the rules doing that.
 * As i said it was all working perfectly until i edited the widget.
 * Now even if i create a new widget it doesn’t work.
 * Its like the selection of rules is not saving.
 * Where does the selected get saved to in code? or in the database?
 * If i know where that information should be stored i will code it manually as 
   a test. If that works then we will know if the selection is not saving.

 * Before going into coding, you may try the development version 2.3.5b05 [http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/fetch-tweets.zip](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/fetch-tweets.zip)
 * Let me know if that changes anything.
 * Also make sure the warning disappears when the plugin is deactivated.

 *     ```
       var_dump( $aInstance );
       ```
   
 * on line 30.
