 * Greetings
    We are currently building a WP site incorporating Custom Twitter Feeds.
   This site sits behind a proxy server. As far as we can see, traffic to Twitter
   is trying to go direct rather than via the proxy. We have set wp-config to refer
   to the proxy and other plugins are using it. Is there a way to configure Custom
   Twitter Feeds to route via a proxy server?
 * Cheers
    Andrew

 * Hey macca68,
 * Sorry for the delay! Our support team has been out due to the American holiday
   over the weekend.
 * I’m wondering if changing the request method setting will allow the proxy server
   to be used. Try going to the “Customize” tab and changing the “Request Method”
   setting to “WP_HTTP”
 * Let me know if you need more help!
