Description

Latest Tweets Obvs uses the Twitter API to securely retrieve the latest tweets from a user account.

The plugin comes with optional CSS, albeit minimal, and is intended to fall back on your base theme styles.
When you are done tweaking the settings, you can display your tweets right away by pasting a shortcode anywhere in your site.

In the plugin settings page, along with choosing how many tweets to show, you can also opt to show or hide the following:

Replies
Retweets
Profile image
Display name
Username
Description (bio)
Location

As mentioned before, there is also the option to turn off the plugin CSS, if you would rather use your own styles.

When you are done, save your changes and paste [latest_tweets_obvs] anywhere in your theme to display the tweets.

FAQ

How do I get my access token/secret and consumer key/secret?: You will need to create an app at https://apps.twitter.com/, after which you will be provided with the necessary credentials.
What is a shortcode?: WordPress best sums up what a shortcode is: “A shortcode is a WordPress-specific code that lets you do nifty things with very little effort. Shortcodes can embed files or create objects that would normally require lots of complicated, ugly code in just one line”.
