Twitter Trick- Hack: Real-Time Twitter Hashtag Boards for Any #Term
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:
<iframe src="http://twubs.com/embed/NING/?messagesPerPage=55&headerBgColor=%231c6485&headerTextColor=%23ffffff" style="border:0px #FFFFFF none;" name="NINGtweets" scrolling="no" frameborder="1" marginheight="0px" marginwidth="0px" height="600" width="100%"></iframe>
Try it on these others substituting out NING for other terms to see what I mean:
SEIAD (Survey Earth in a Day)
Get Fancy with Tabs in Ning 3
Enjoy this time saving hack and let me know if you have any questions...
