Embedding tweets

Embed tweets!

You can now embed specific tweets right into your CougarCorner posts.

You do it by clicking the "tweet" button and inserting the tweet ID into the middle of the [ tweet ][ /tweet ] text that appears.

This is the ID:
https://twitter.com/BYUphoto/status/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;546488142065184769
Copy the numbers, and only the numbers so it looks like this (spaces added so it doesn't actually convert):
[ tweet ]546488142065184769[ /tweet ].

How do you find the twitter ID?
In twitter you can click on a tweet and select details, it will then pull up the tweet in full screen mode and you can get the ID from the address bar.

Here's our above example:
