    Hello dsargentmajor,

    This support forum is for blogs hosted at WordPress.com. Your question is specifically for a self-hosted installation of WordPress. You will need to seek help in the appropriate WordPress.org forum.

    Hi dsargentmajor,

    You can set up that widget using the steps in the Jetpack guide for the Twitter Timeline Widget. You don’t need to copy and paste the full widget HTML from Twitter for that — you only need the widget ID, which is the long number in the URL in your browser’s address bar while you’re editing that widget on Twitter.

    @daschultemn — Since Jetpack is also created by Automattic (the company behind WordPress.com) staff can also help with Jetpack questions when they come up here. Feel free to add the “modlook” tag to forum threads related to Jetpack features if you need staff to take a look. :) Jetpack users can also contact our Jetpack team directly for help through our Jetpack contact form.

    Have a good one.
