Twitter suddenly won't embed

When users post links to a tweet we get this message

 

The link could not be embedded because there is no tweet at that URL.

 

It was working up  until two days ago. Any ideas?

I started having the same problem on both of my communities a few days ago. I'm on the latest software and I'm up to date with optional patches. I have had my host (Cloudways) looking into it the last 2 days with no luck as well. I'll update if I figure anything out, but I'm semi-glad to see it's not just me.

Same problem on our server since 1 day. Never had issues in the past with Twitter.

I still haven't found a fix for this.  If anyone does, please update here.

In the developer console, when embedding a tweet, now seeing this as a CORB error

That error also happens here and Twitter embeds correctly.

I have tagged a developer to see if there is any further insight into why this may be happening.

If you're using CloudFlare, you may wish trying to disable that temporarily. Something might be happening there?

Hey Jim, thank you for flagging this. I'm hoping this helps narrow it down, but to follow-up, I'm not using Cloudflare (or any CDN).

Indeed, if I disconnect from our corporate VPN it does work, so it looks like they have some sort of firewall that is blocking requests from certain IP ranges. This is what I see on network:

Could contain: Text, Page, Paper, Business Card

Since the request comes from your server, and not from you specifically, it's likely getting caught up in that as well.

I'm wondering if it's possible if Twitter is rate limiting or otherwise blocking the servers as well.  They've been making a ton of changes that have broken a lot of things.  It would not surprise me if this was one of them.

That's my fear. Twitter has recently disabled embedding on Substack, so it wouldn't surprise me if they're expanding that rollout. I'm hoping that's not the case, though.

I suppose the question would be, if it's a twitter thing, then how come the twitter embed functionality is still working here?

 

Our IP address has not yet been banned yet is the current assumption.

FYI we are able to use the embeds again, I was about to open a ticket with DigitalOcean, maybe someone beat me to the punch?

Unfortunately, it's still not working for me. Hopefully it magically starts working again, soon. 🤞

Twitter working fine in my forum. We have had an issue for a long time of not being able to embed Facebook posts by copying and pasting the post link. The only work around is going onto a desktop and getting the embed code for a post which you can't get from a mobile. In any event we only allow mods and admins to access Source Code to post.
