I have an embedded timeline on my website that only displays posts from 2019, regardless of whether a user is logged in or out.
This issue also appears on a secondary account where no timelines are visible when logged out. The embedded link on my site does not seem to update past 2019.
I've seen several posts discussing this issue without any resolution. Is X simply not updating it, or is there a known solution to refresh the timeline?

Based on your description, you're experiencing a common issue with embedded Twitter/X timelines that many users have reported. The embedded timeline functionality has been problematic since Twitter's transition to X, with many features being deprecated or not properly maintained.
Update to the latest embed code
If you're using an older version of the Twitter embed code, try getting a fresh embed code from the X developer portal.
Try alternative embedding methods
Consider using the newer X embed approach or a third-party solution:
HTML<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> <a class="twitter-timeline" href="https://twitter.com/YourUsername">Tweets by YourUsername</a>
Use the oEmbed API
X still supports the oEmbed API which might work better for displaying recent tweets:
JAVASCRIPTfetch('https://publish.twitter.com/oembed?url=https://twitter.com/YourUsername') .then(response => response.json()) .then(data => { document.getElementById('tweet-container').innerHTML = data.html; });
Consider third-party solutions
There are several third-party services that can pull and display tweets more reliably than the official embed, such as Tockify, EmbedSocial, or custom solutions using the Twitter API.
Unfortunately, this appears to be an ongoing issue that X hasn't fully addressed, and many users are experiencing the same problem with embedded timelines not updating past certain dates.
