## FAQ

Where to find the Consumer Key, Secret, Access Token and Secret?

You have to create an application on Twitter at (http://dev.twitter.com), and copy
the consumer key, secret, access token and secret at the places that are required.

Is it vulnerable to add my credentials with your widget?

Obviously No. You’re saving your credentials in your own wordpress site and we never
get your credentials.

Do I have to fill all the details in the widget?

Yes, it is recommended to fill all the details for better results.

Can I add a url link at the place of hashtag or keyword?

Yes you can, but while adding the url, make sure you don’t use http:// before it.

For example: Instead of http://example.com, you have to type as example.com

Can I type both hashtag and Username ?

Yes, you can have both hashtag and username, But which ever you selected from the
textbox will be used to fetch the tweets.
