Shit the bed, I get it now. Between your (tweet) and then (/tweet) you just need the number, not the whole URL. I can't tell you how much I just LOL'd when I found out.

Hmmmm, I did at one point but it didn't appear to be working so I changed it to the link. NSC ground to a halt for a few minutes when I was messing around with testing this new feature.

Guilty, as charged.

And when I go to edit my last post, nothing appears on the screen to edit. Another bug for [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] to fix.

You didn't break it - site backups run at 4am and brings things to a standstill for a bit.

Editing doesn't work in this thread - presumably an, ahem, feature, of the tweet tags. I'll raise it with the plugin developer.

Well there's got to be an easier way to get the number, but at least I can do it.

And probably never again.

I'm off to break the embed thread, now.

Edit post my lifeline now seems to be broken.

Just a grey box comes up in place of the original post.

How are you getting the number? For me it's clicking the time on the tweet (top right of the tweet) to bring it up on it's own page.

Actually, I click and drag it to it's own tab, but that's just to save having to click back to get to the timeline again.

Also, if you click on the tweet, it takes you to the page in the same window/tab. Usually on here when you click a link it opens a new tab.
