to the /wp-content/plugins/
directory
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
- If you don’t have your Twitter Widget ID yet, Go on https://twitter.com/settings/widgets/new to create a new widget to get your Twitter Widget ID. Your Twitter Widget ID is in the URL (https://twitter.com/settings/widgets/TWITTER_WIDGET_ID/edit…) right after you click on the button “Create widget” or in the code provided by Twitter: data-widget-id=”TWITTER_WIDGET_ID”.

[minitwitter id="TWITTER_WIDGET_ID" username="YOUR_USERNAME"]
in your templates or use the widget section.
You can limit the number of tweets displayed [minitwitter id=”TWITTER_WIDGET_ID” username=”webdevdesigner” limit=7]: it will show the last 7 tweets of the user @webdevdesigner.
It is possible to add a list of users to show [minitwitter id=”TWITTER_WIDGET_ID” username=”twitter” list=”team”]: it will show 5 tweets of the list “team” of the “twitter” user.

why my feed is just showing a link (“Tweets by…”)?
You probably forgot to put your Twitter Widget ID in the shortcode or the widget. Check step 2. of the installation process.
What are the “query” and “list” fields in the widget section?
The field “query” is NOT required. It is only to show themes or sentences like “#worldcup”.
The field “list” is NOT required too. It is to display the tweets of one of your list.
