Great news everyone! You can now embed tweets in your posts like this one


<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Did you see the new design for the <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Waterloo?src=hash">#Waterloo</a> Town Square water feature? <a href="http://t.co/N7m1ehXMpr">http://t.co/N7m1ehXMpr</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/KWAwesome?src=hash">#KWAwesome</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WRAwesome?src=hash">#WRAwesome</a> <a href="http://t.co/ymqOdcgxbp">pic.twitter.com/ymqOdcgxbp</a></p>&mdash; WR Connected (@WRConnected) <a href="https://twitter.com/WRConnected/status/603318986353278976">May 26, 2015</a></blockquote>


Just copy and paste the "embed" code into your post. There's one catch though, you have to delete the last line of code that says :
Code:
<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8">

Well we've got a new, and easier way to post tweets now.  All you need is the URL of the actual tweet.  Take that URL and put it in between the new twitter mycode tags

For example:
Code:
[twitter]https://twitter.com/rideIONrt/status/951495024952328192[/twitter]

looks like
