Scarlet Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Should be easy enough... I go to the tweet, hit the drop down arrow, click embed Tweet, copy, then try to paste as plain text here and all I get is code. See below. Do I need to paste into the link menu? <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is the thread where I break down my interpretation and conclusions of how COVID infections work<br><br>I have asked <a href="https://twitter.com/MLevitt_NP2013?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@MLevitt_NP2013</a> his opinion on this analysis and he said it aligns with his thinking<br><br>Long thread coming up<br><br>Appreciate RT if you find it interesting</p>— Gummi Bear (@gummibear737) <a href="https://twitter.com/gummibear737/status/1280547634382606339?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 7, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> Nope that didn't work either http://<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is the thread where I break down my interpretation and conclusions of how COVID infections work<br><br>I have asked <a href="https://twitter.com/MLevitt_NP2013?ref_src=twsrc^tfw">@MLevitt_NP2013</a> his opinion on this analysis and he said it aligns with his thinking<br><br>Long thread coming up<br><br>Appreciate RT if you find it interesting</p>— Gummi Bear (@gummibear737) <a href="https://twitter.com/gummibear737/status/1280547634382606339?ref_src=twsrc^tfw">July 7, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Just copy the url from the browser bar and paste that here. Should embed after a few seconds. Quote Link to comment

Yeah, you just need to paste the url of the tweet, not the embed code: https://twitter.com/MLevitt_NP2013/status/1281189868434001920 Quote Link to comment

Scarlet Posted July 9, 2020 Author Share Posted July 9, 2020 All I see is the URL on my side. Copied and pasted two ways, twice. Is it showing up as embedded? Quote Link to comment

No. You might have to give it a second to process before you click Submit so it loads properly. Also, if you paste it and there is a message below it that says "Post as plain text instead", you have to click that. 1 Quote Link to comment

I just tested it on my end and this is what it looks like after I paste the URL and then give it a second to load: Quote Link to comment

Enhance Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 @Scarlet Are you doing this on desktop/laptop, tablet or phone? If able, please do the following: 1) Copy and paste a URL of a Tweet you'd like to post into the reply box in this thread. 2) After posting the link, wait a few seconds to see if any sort of pop up appears in the reply box. 3) Before you click 'Submit Reply,' take a screenshot of the reply box (similar to the one I posted above). 4) Delete the tweet, upload the screenshot and submit that as a reply so we can see what you're seeing.

Enhance Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 FWIW I don't know if pasting links with the URL 'mobile.twitter' works or not. Never tried it. I always click the share button on a tweet when I'm on mobile and click 'Copy link to tweet.' Will test below. Edit - Submitting URL from mobile didn't work at all. So, might only work on desktop/laptop? Quote Link to comment
