    Is it possible to add a twitter feed on the homepage of the Dzen theme in the same way as you can in some of your other themes (Revelance is one example). I’ve noticed the AB Twitter plugin and associated shortcodes arent installed as part of the Dzen theme.

    Hi,

    we first install Tweet Scroller to test on our Dzen demo theme and it works perfect.

    When we install Tweet Scroller on your page, we get message “yourdomain.au page isn’t working

    yourdomain.au is currently unable to handle this request.”

    Please remove our ab tweet scroller plugin through FTP and then deactivated all plugins that they might have to do with Tweet scroller because we
    do not have access to your FTP.

    We sending you link with ab tweet scroller plugin, please download and install ab-tweet-scroller.zip file through WordPress and also paste ab-tweet-scroller.php file to your “elements” folder
    (you can find it here \wp-content\themes\dzen\elements).

    After that when you go to edit page, insert AB Tweet Scroller element all should work fine.

    Let us know if you’ll need anything else.

    Kind regards

    I have successfully installed the plugin, however when added to the page it is only showing “about 46 years ago”. I have checked the configuration and believe it to be correct.

    Hi,

    maybe you set something wrong in configuration. Are you sure that you deactivated all plugin that associated with Twitter?

    We sending you in attachment picture from our Dzen demo theme where AB Tweet Scroller works fine.

    Let us know if you’ll need anything else.

    Regards

    I removed the plugin through the wpadmin interface this time and reinstalled it a second time and it now appears to be functioning. Is it possible to get some of the visual styling seen in some of your other themes eg the forward and back buttons? I’m assuming there is some extra CSS that would need to be added to achieve this?

    Yes you will need some extra CSS for different styles.
    Just tell us of which theme style do you like and we will send you the CSS.

    I’m happy for you to pick whichever you think is the best cosmetic match for the theme. Revelance seems reasonable to me. Thanks.

    Hi,

    we are sending you css of Revelance theme. We just correct a little this code to be similar to your theme (Dzen).

    Add this code in the end of your style.css file and everything should be work fine.
