 * I am using [rotatingtweets screen_name=’wbcmaine’ include_rts=’1′ tweet_count
   =’7′ timeout=’3000′ show_follow=’0′ show_meta_screen_name=’0′ show_meta_prev_next]
 * but it is not showing the follow button or prev, next.

 * Try:
 *     ```
       [rotatingtweets screen_name='wbcmaine' include_rts='1' tweet_count='7' timeout='3000' show_follow='1' show_meta_screen_name='0' show_meta_prev_next='1']
       ```
   
 * Does that work better for you? It currently also only works with version 1 of
   the JavaScript…

 * Sorry, I just tried it again…and this time it seems to be working ok.
 * Question: Is there any way to show more than one tweet at a time?

 * Yes. You need to switch to version 2 of the JavaScript on the settings page and
   then try something like:
 *     ```
       [rotatingtweets screen_name='wbcmaine' rotation_type='carousel' include_rts='1' tweet_count='7' timeout='3000' show_follow='1' show_meta_screen_name='0']
       ```

 * ok, thanks. that worked, I have 7 posts…but it is not scrolling….and there is
   a ‘lot’ of space between posts…almost takes the whole page?

 * That doesn’t sound good. It sounds like something – either in your CSS or in 
   another JavaScript – is disagreeing with RT.
 * Have you switched to version 2 of the script on the site settings page? Can you
   send me a link?

 * For formatting, something like:
 *     ```
       div.rotatingtweet p {
          margin: 6px 0;
       };
       ```
   
 * in CSS via a `wp-content/uploads/rotatingtweets.css` file might help.
 * To restart the rotations, I think the readmytweet plug-in may currently be breaking
   the JavaScript. What happens if you deactivate it or replace it with the latest
   version? (RT does horizontal rotations if you need them incidentally – try `rotation_type
   = 'scrollLeft'`).
