I can get this working for a short period but then it stops pulling in tweets. Sometimes I can force it by repeatedly clearing the cache and grabbing new tweets but now even that isn't working.
I have recent tweets and my profile set-up is correct as far as I can see but it will not call up these tweets no matter how many times I refresh and/or clear the cache.
I really need a plug-in that will reliably bring in tweets to an account without me having to check on it every few minutes.
Am I missing something here >
Just to answer my own post ..... this is apparantly caused by the Twitter API limit which, unfortunately, has rendered this plug-in unusable for me.

This could be. As you may aware, there are API limitations:
- Unauthenticated calls are permitted 150 requests per hour. Unauthenticated calls are measured against the public facing IP of the server or device making the request
- OAuth calls are permitted 350 requests per hour and are measured against the oauth_token used in the request
Is your Twitter app used by many applications/clients?
Anyway, this should be no problem if you set a longer import interval (ex: every 60 minutes).
I was trying to use the feed to provide updates from a hockey game on match nights so I needed very regular updates from Twitter ...... every 60 minutes wouldn't prove too interesting !
