X posts join the sources
You can now show your X posts on your site, on every plan, with nothing to authorize.
- New: X. Type an account’s @handle or paste a link to its profile on x.com or twitter.com, and its newest posts show as a posts wall of cards or a photo grid, in a grid, carousel or masonry layout. Each post links to X. A link to one post connects the account that wrote it, and Paste any link recognises x.com and twitter.com links. See X.
- New: Reposts, replies and quotes, as X shows them. Reposts are on by default and replies off, both chosen per widget. A reply shows the post it answers, and a post the account reposted and also replied to shows once, with its own words first and the post as a small card inside. A quoted post is a small card too, and one X can no longer show reads “This post is unavailable.”
- New: Videos and link cards. A video or GIF shows its poster with a play mark and, with Lightbox on, plays in the lightbox with a “Watch on X” link under it, streamed from X to your visitor at no extra credits. The picture or video of a quoted post opens the lightbox too. A link post with no picture shows its link card’s picture.
- New: A header for the photo grid with the account’s picture, @handle and a Follow link, and like and reply counts on the tiles with Stats on. Line breaks stay as the author wrote them.
- New: Speeds by plan. Each X update is a paid request, so X has its own fastest speed: weekly on Free, daily on Starter, every 6 hours on Growth, every hour on Pro and every 15 minutes on Scale, for up to 10 X sources per account at that speed. An update costs 3 credits. Update now and webhooks follow the same speed and wait at least an hour between updates of one source. See Update speed and schedules.
- New: Fair use. A free account can connect 10 different X accounts in any 30 days. When this month’s shared X limit runs low, X updates slow down for everyone, free accounts first and paid accounts last, and your widgets keep their last posts. See Fair use.
- New: agents can connect an X account with
setup_widgetorconnect_source. Like every source, they get counts and a preview, never the posts themselves.
