How to Embed a Twitter (X) Feed on Your Website (2026 Guide)

You want X posts on your website. There are four ways to do it, and they suit different jobs. One post in a blog article needs X's own embed code. A wall of hashtag posts at an event needs a tool that filters what shows. This guide compares all four, then gives the steps for each.

We make Idukki, so read the last row with that in mind. We rank nothing here. Each row fits a different job.

Method 1: embed one post

1. 1Open the post on X and copy its URL.
2. 2Go to publish.twitter.com and paste the URL.
3. 3Pick the embedded post option and copy the code it gives you.
4. 4Paste the code into an HTML block on your page and publish.

No developer account is needed. The code loads X's widgets.js script, which draws the post. When that script is slow or blocked, the reader sees a plain quote with a link.

Method 2: embed a profile timeline

1. 1Copy the profile URL, for example x.com/yourbrand.
2. 2Paste it into publish.twitter.com and choose the embedded timeline option.
3. 3Set the theme and height, then copy the code.
4. 4Paste the code where the feed should appear.

A timeline shows that profile's own posts only. It cannot show a hashtag, mentions or search results. Styling stops at a light or dark theme and a height. In 2023 embedded timelines stopped rendering for logged-out visitors for a while. Treat a timeline as decoration you can afford to lose.

Method 3: a free widget tool

Widget tools pull posts on their own servers and render a styled feed. Juicer's free plan gives one feed with one source and refreshes once a day. Its X, LinkedIn and hashtag sources are a 7-day trial on that plan. Paid plans start at $15 a month for three sources. The free feed carries Juicer branding.

1. 1Sign up and create a feed.
2. 2Add your X handle as a source.
3. 3Pick a layout and copy the embed code.
4. 4Paste the code into your page.

Method 4: a moderated wall with Idukki

Use a wall when anyone can post to the hashtag you show. Idukki collects X posts by handle or campaign tag. It runs them through automatic moderation and publishes only what passes. You can add a human approval queue. The same wall can mix X posts with Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.

1. 1Install Idukki from the Shopify App Store, or book a demo for other platforms.
2. 2Add X as a source with your handle or hashtag.
3. 3Set moderation rules and, if you want, turn on manual approval.
4. 4Pick a layout on the X widget page and copy the embed.
5. 5On Shopify, add the gallery block in the Theme Editor. Elsewhere, paste one script tag.

On a store, you can tag products to posts so the wall links to them. The free plan covers up to 20,000 widget impressions a month and shows the Idukki logo. For more networks in one feed, read the social media aggregator guide.

What about the X API?

You can build your own feed on the X API. Reading posts through it is a paid product. Rates change, so check X's developer pricing page. You also write and host the fetch, cache and render code. That only pays off if you already use the API for something else.

Page speed

X's widgets.js sits on your page's critical path. When it is slow, your page is slow. When it fails, the embed disappears. Lazy-loading it behind a click helps. A wall rendered from a server cache works the other way round. An X outage then shows slightly older posts instead of nothing. The numbers are in Core Web Vitals impact of UGC widgets.

LinkedIn has no feed widget at all. The LinkedIn feed embed guide covers the workarounds.
