Tweets in a block?

Yes. Previously I used… (in a page template)

<?php
    perch_twitter_get_latest(array(
        'twitter_id'=>'xxxxxxxxxx',
        'type'=>'favourites',
        'count'=>8,
        'exclude_replies'=>false
    )); 
?>

However the way the site I'm working on is constructed I need to do the same thing but from within a block.

I've tried using it…

<perch:content id="tweet" type="tweet" label="Tweet ID" encode="false" />

Which allows me to enter the twitter ID from the tmeplate. Though I haven't actually go it to display a tweet - only the framework of the template. Also I not sure if I can say how many tweets I want it to display?

In the input field that is generated. without the @… so minimastersgolf Directly below the input field is some bold text that says Tweet text: (not sure wht this is.)

Oh… OK I try that.

Is it possible to get it to display the latest 5 or will it display one specific tweet?

Ideally I'd like to display the 5 latest tweets from the clients twitter feed. I know I can do this in a page template, but this site is a single page site with a region (set to allow multiples) and a template with 8 different content blocks to allow the client to reorder content in the page as they see fit. One of these blocks displays social media feeds from instagram and twitter. Instagram is fine but I need a way to display the last 5 or so tweets.

Many thanks I'll give that a go. I'll let you know the out come.

That's a neat trick! Pulling in the tweets perfectly, once I've styled them up nicely it'll be a perfect solution. Many thanks to both of you.
