Hello Emi,
Have you tried this part of Beach instructions

"It is easy to embed a tweet - on the tweet you will see a down arrow. Click on that. The 2nd option says "Copy link to tweet". Copy that link and paste it in the text box here at WS. Voila! it will appear as a screenshot."

Testing to see if I can embed a tweet so that I can help explain it to Emi LOL

I've tried it like that but I'm not seeing the actual test of the tweet and that's what I want to see

Replying to my own post to say that it worked. The down arrow is at the top right corner of a tweet and then once you click on that arrow, then click on the option that says "Copy link to tweet". Then when you see the popup with the URL link then right-click and COPY it.

Then just paste it here in a Reply message.

Yeah, even though you dont see it at first when you finally post what you copied here and then REFRESH your screen here with your post it finally shows up. That happened to me too what you are describing but when I refreshed to look at my post, i saw it then.

 

[Hatfield]

I have never fully understood embedding versus including links but I am getting better at copying and pasting stuff. LOL

Maybe the "Go Advanced" option where you could preview your post may help to see it before you actually post it.

Is this the correct way to show up and then maybe copy text

Exactly. Sometimes it shows up when you preview, other times it takes a few seconds to appear. Yay for new tricks! :happydance:

Emi, you'll get it. Your last one is fine even though it doesn't show up as an image. The link is good.

Yes, that will work. As long as we have a link to the orignal twitter account, it complies with copyright laws.

This one worked too Emi. I think you must have gone back in and edited this one to include the embedded link.

I can now see the image to the tweet on this one.

Beach is correct that sometimes it takes a little bit for the image to show up, and especially when you are the one creating the post, so if you wanted to include copied text below the embedded link that is fine too. The link has to be included for the copyright part.

Thanks Beach for helping us. And thanks Emi for all your hard work in keeping up with this trial.

Hi Hatfield, would you mind popping into the Chelsea Bruck thread to help those posters with tweets? I explained to them how I do it from a tablet, but some posters are saying it doesn't work for them.
