Solution: Using Custom HTML for Twitter Embeds in WordPress
Instead of using the default Twitter embed block in WordPress, you can use custom HTML with the blockquote version of the tweet. This option won’t affect older posts.
- Find the Tweet you want to embed and click on the
...
icon (More).
- Choose “Embed Tweet” and copy the HTML code provided by Twitter.
- In your WordPress editor, instead of choosing the Twitter block, choose the Custom HTML block.
- Paste the copied Twitter HTML into the block.
