    Take a look at this test page and you can see the trouble I'm having embedding tweets.

    http://isportsweb.com/test/

    You can see the first tweet is not embedding the second one is, but as soon as I type below it that one won't embed correctly either.

    Hello,

    Is this problem only happening in a Genesis theme?  Have you also tried embedding multiple tweets with the default TwentyTwelve theme?

    I'm using the Metro theme and it's always the same problem that you see in that link when I try to embed a tweet.

    Hmmm,

    Using the instructions from WordPress I am able to embed a tweet without any issues.  Are pasting the link url or using the shortcode?

    Could any plugins be affecting the content by chance?

    Just throwing out ideas.

    You can see with the second tweet that it works. However, the first tweet is not displaying and then it block quotes the text and typed below it. I'm using the same method as explained in the wordpress instructions.

    I did try deactivating plugins and was unable to resolve it that way.

    On second thought, it looks like the shortcode is a wordpress.com thing.  Probably won't work for self-hosted.

    What are the two tweet url's?  Maybe the first one is displaying characters that are breaking the content.  I will try them on in my development environment.

    Hmmmm.  Both work for me.  So it always does this no matter the tweets?

    Yes, it always does this. Once I type something underneath the link for the tweet, it throws everything out of whack

    Hmmm, that is odd.  Unfortunately, I don't have the Metro theme to test this.  I was just testing this on the default Genesis theme.  Something has to be breaking the html on the first tweet... just no idea what.
