Only Showing 1 Tweet

  • Hi. I’ve happily been using Rotating Tweets on multiple sites for a few years now. So thanks for your continued enhancements and support!

    I just installed on a new site. And on this site, no matter what I do, it only shows 1 tweet at a time.

    Looking thru the documentation, I see mention of: rotation_type = If you are using version 1 of the JavaScript, you can use any of the options listed on the jQuery.cycle website.

    I suspect this is the issue. Could you advise on how best to check on how to check and resolve? I’m not even sure how check which version this site might be using. But will do some research.

    Thanks, mike

    If you pick an invalid rotation_type, it just uses the default one instead. It won’t stop rotating.

    This normally isn’t a problem with Rotating Tweets, but a clash with some other JavaScript – either in a template or in another plug-in. It’s hard to tell without seeing the HTML, but if you hit [F12] and then look at the Console it may tell you if there is a JavaScript error. If you look at the HTML, it’s worth checking if jquery.js appears more than once, since this can also be a sign of a problem.

    Is this a template you have not used before? Or is there a new plug-in that you’ve not used before?

    PS: If you send me the link, I’ll be happy to see if I can spot the problem.

    Great plugin but I’m having the same problem (I think). For me, the widget is only showing the most recent and it just constantly rotates with the same tweet appearing each time.

    Hi Kendra,

    I think that might be a different problem. What is the set-up of the Tweet you are using? Is it following a particular account or are you using a search?

    Best wishes,

    Sorry for delay in responding. Just back from break,. Appreciate the input. I’ve inherited this particular project. So it’s all new, including the theme and other plugins. I don’t see any Java errors related to this.

    I will send you the link and access credential on your home email address. Thanks, Martin.

    Many thanks, Mike. As discussed by email, if the tweets are rotating, but you can only see one tweet at time, then you need to:

    • Switch to version two of jQuery Cycle on the Rotating Tweets settings page.
    • Make sure you select ‘Carousel’ as the rotation type.

    I hope this helps!

    It helped me …. apparently the Rotation Type is case sensitive and it has to be “Carousel” – you may want to update your documentation. Great plugin – THANK YOU!

    According to the code, rotation type should not be case sensitive… but I’ll double check!
