To embed a tweet first get the tweet number from the embed code twitter provides, it will always start with a 9. Paste that number into your post here then wrap it with the TWEET bb code.

[ TWEET](the number)[/ TWEET]

Without the spaces.

(As admin you can click "edit" on any post containing a embedded tweet, and you'll see how it's done that way as well.)

Do I have to sign up on Twitter first?

I don't see these codes you are referring to.

No

I don't see these codes you are referring to.

Here's the URL address of a Schefter Tweet:

find the string of numbers in the address and copy and paste into the Twitter toggle on this site, like this:

when you do so, the Tweet will be embedded

Yep if you're on PC look in the addressbar, in mobile it might be easier to use the "share" link they have, to get that number. But all we need here is the number, not the whole URL of the tweet.

tweets don't always start with a 9, dooms.
First one I've personally seen that didn't, and I've edited at least 100 twitter posts here to make them embed. I'd assumed they all start with a 9. Bad assumption.
