Is it possible to do that on the forums?

[eFestivals]

nope, sorry. Allowing it would open the doors to all sorts of nasties.

Do you mind me asking how? NME use it (sorry to have to even reference that site) - you could always make it into this forums version of BB Code so you just add the URL of the tweet such as https://www.twitter.com/eFestivals/status/253094255717920770

via people being able to post scripts.

I could. Are you able to point me at an example, to make it easy?

Making a massive presumption that you can use BB Code

However yes, that might be a security risk. Sure some bod out there has managed to sort something out. Just looks pretty!

Thanks. I'll check it out when I've done the more urgent tasks.

However, I've got a feeling that I've already seen some tweets embedded in the forums in some manner, but I can't think in what threads to double-check. But it might be the case that it can already be done somehow.
