I think that people also can do this by there own just use an service like https://gyazo.com. Besides it's impossible to make an button for each social media platform available.

It would be really useful but it depends much on how will it looks like.
But I totally agree- easier way to show your tweets on this forum (it can also become annoying btw) Cheesy

Indeed , I totally agree . I usually post screenshots as-well when there is no way to post the tweets and I guess It can be done as should be since new forum software BackGround is white so It should look good .

Totally agree, but I think visually it might be annoying to see if done poorly.

Yes, I'm thinking a confined box with fixed width and length, so it looks neat and clean, showing the content of the tweet without the image ofcourse should look nice and will be much convenient for sharing tweets to discuss.

Sounds like a good idea on paper, but IMO the idea might be hard to implement just so that a couple users could embed a tweet (not that it would be used often, to be completely honest). The only way I can think of is making a tag like [tweet="1jh4j1kj098t90892"] (the random assortment of numbers and letters in the link of a tweet), or maybe making it so that someone could use HTML to format a post; but that would have security issues.

If you ask me this is a good idea. However I have nothing I should say regarding this. Grin

If you don't have anything to say then there's no reason for you to say anything.

This actually came to my mind some days back when I wanted to share a tweet in one of my posts but I couldn't find a way to do that other than just posting a screenshot of it.

I think it would be a great addon, ability to embed tweets directly to posts.  Undecided

Let me know what you guys think about it.
