What is the guidance on embedding feeds from the X platform on a website?
It is our recommendation that Feeds from the X platform are not embedded within websites published via the Web CMS. There are two main reasons behind this recommendation which are as follows:
- Visitors to your website will not be able to see any of the content within the embed unless they are logged into their own account on the X platform. They will instead see a message such as 'Nothing to see here' until they log into their X account and then visit your website.
- The point of having an account on the X platform is to drive traffic to your website. It should be used to promote events, news articles and other information via links to the appropriate page(s) on your website.
We would recommend adding a link out to your social media profiles using appropriate icons on your website. Please log a call via the IT Service Desk if you require help adding or amending social media links on your website.
