How to show Twitter Followers Count on wordpress widget
Open your sidebar.php file and just copy paste the following code.
First you would need to create a file twitter.php and paste the following code in there:
<?php
//This xml file will return the all user information about from twitter account
$xml=file_get_contents('http://twitter.com/users/show.xml?screen_name=wordpressapi');
if (preg_match('/followers_count>(.*)</',$xml,$match)!=0) {
$twitter_follower_count['count'] = $match[1];
// this will show the twitter followers count
echo $twitter_follower_count['count'];
?>
WordPressapi is my twitter username. So you can change it your username.
