    I think I've asked this before, but not sure there was ever a solution to it. Is there a way to post tweets that appear in tweet box format, similar to this (this is a picture file):

    Rather than just posting them as links like:

    https://twitter.com/jimcramer/status/634815920972677120

    The "embed tweet" formatting from twitter doesn't embed into this forum. It comes out like this:

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren meet privately as rumors swirl of a Biden White House run: <a href="http://t.co/J7W8DeSu72">http://t.co/J7W8DeSu72</a> <a href="http://t.co/PBy9vocdRF">pic.twitter.com/PBy9vocdRF</a></p>&mdash; The Hill (@thehill) <a href="https://twitter.com/thehill/status/635196256596455424">August 22, 2015</a></blockquote>

    Ok, all you have to do is click on the "Copy Link" option for the tweet you want to share and then copy that URL onto your clipboard. Then just click on the media button in the editor here and paste the URL in.

    Testing:



    Hmmm...Also if you use firefox no-script, you have to allow "s93.github.io" or else you can't see the tweets.
