But I didn&#8217;t want the Tweets to appear in the main blog.<\/p>\n<p>The combination of the Twitter Tools plug-in and the Sideposts plug-in did just that. With Sideposts, I can post into a category called &#8220;Sideposts&#8221; (or any other name), without those posts appearing in the main blog or the main feed. This is very convenient for creating posts such as blog editor&#8217;s notes on updates or other such things that may not be of interest to majority of blog readers. For example, if the blog focuses on say &#8220;travel,&#8221; then most visitors would not be interested in a discussion on WordPress plug-ins. That&#8217;s where a Sidepost kind of category comes handy.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to that, Twitter Tools allow you to choose where the posts created from Tweets should go. So in my case, they go to the category &#8220;Sideposts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I use this category to post previews, notes about website upgrades, and other such things. Now, my Tweet posts appear there too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was looking for a way to create a Tweet whenever I post in my blog, and also to get record of my Tweets on&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[334],"class_list":["post-876","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sideposts","tag-tweets","wpcat-39-id"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/technicalley.com\/central\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/876","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/technicalley.com\/central\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/technicalley.com\/central\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/technicalley.com\/central\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/technicalley.com\/central\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=876"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/technicalley.com\/central\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/876\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/technicalley.com\/central\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=876"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/technicalley.com\/central\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=876"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/technicalley.com\/central\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=876"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
