  • Here is the error I’m receiving:
    “Error 403: Your IP is being rate limited by Twitter.”
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

  • I’m having the same problem.That is not a WordPress issue. It is an error code generated by the Pagelines theme (you can see the code for it here: https://github.com/pagelines/platformpro/blob/master/sections/section.twitterbar.php), and it is echoing back an error code generated by Twitter. I don’t know how to fix it yet, so I can’t offer further advice on that point.

    I’m seeing this on page lines sites everywhere now. Would love to hear when a solution is found!

    On checking your site it appears you’re using one of our older themes, Platform Pro. Unfortunately a while back due to the changes in the twitter api the way that twitter feeds were called for was changed which resulted in the twitter bar which is hard coded into the theme no longer functioning.

    As the Platform Pro theme is now a legacy theme, unfortunately it will receive no further updates to correct this issue.

    We would advise using a widget or jetpack plugin to provide your twitter activity in place of the twitter bar section on your site to resolve this.

    You can hide the twitterbar section by placing the following custom css in to your custom css panel and saving.

    #twitterbar {display:none;}

    Thank you VERY MUCH for sharing that response here.
