Post date: May 22, 2015 3:20:18 AM

This is a quick tip for anyone who would like to add a real time twitter hashtag board to any page on their ning site.

So first I want you to take a look at this link. I'll wait.

Now, analyzing the structure of this URL you can see a few things which can be changed to make a board for any term

http://twubs.com/embed/NING/?messagesPerPage=55&headerBgColor=%231c6485&headerTextColor=%23ffffff

Change the Red for the term you are wanting the latest tweets about

Change this number for number of tweets to show

Change this hex color (leaving the %23) for color of header and the other for header text

This entire URL can become an iFrame inside a module like so:

Try it on these others substituting out NING for other terms to see what I mean:

SEIAD (Survey Earth in a Day)

Enjoy this time saving hack and let me know if you have any questions...
