------------UPDATE----------------
Nevermind, I just ended up taking the twitter widget from here https://twitter.com/about/resources/widgets/widget_profile and passing variables directly into it and it works fine :)
Hi all,
I've been trying to get the Twitter feed on my website using the Twitter Widget Pack.
I've taken the code from the TwitterProfileWidget.php and TwitterProfileWidget.ss files and transferred them to my respective Homepage files but the area for the twitter feed comes up blank.
When I look at the source code it shows some of the variables passed properly but the defaults like height and width are still null.
Can someone tell me am I missing something really obvious??
Homepage.ss
<div class="twitter_box"><!--start twitter_box-->
<script src="http://widgets.twimg.com/j/2/widget.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">new TWTR.Widget($WidgetSetupJSON).render().setUser('$User').start();</script>
</div>
<!--end twitter_box-->
