Hi David

This is quite easy to set up, so let's run through it:

First, go to https://twitter.com/settings/widgets and create a new widget.

On the next screen, click on the "search" tab.  From there, you'll be able to see that you can enter a hashtag or any other search query, so pop in #commercialproperty there.

When done, press "create widget".

When the page refreshes, you should see some code appear below the preview box.  You'll end up with something like this:

Tweets about "#commercialproperty"

Add that code to your HTML and hey presto! You now have the feed showing.

And remember, the search field in twitter lets you use normal search parameters just like Google, such as AND or OR commands, or even -from:usernamehere if you want to remove a certain someone from the feed.

For instance, you may want to show tweets containing #commercialproperty or the words "commercial property" together.  In this case, you'd enter this search term:

(#commercialproperty) OR (Commercial AND Property)

Here's the code for that widget:

Tweets about "(#commercialproperty) OR (Commercial AND Property)"

Hope this helps!
