If you plan to use the widget in the page footer your Engage page we recommend specifying the height of 290px. Once the design meets your requirements click the “Update” button below the editor.

To add your widget code to Engage return to your Standard Page editor or your Sidebar editor.  Click “Add Module” where you would like the widget to appear and select “Custom Content” as your module type.  Name your module, add a title if using and click the “Source” option on the editor.  Paste the Twitter code into the editor, click submit and publish.
