arc_twitter_intents

arc_twitter_intents requires arc_twitter v3 or higher to work.

Apart from the arc_twitter_intent_follow tag, all the arc_twitter_intents tags work within an article context. If you use them elsewhere in your Textpattern templates then you will need to specifically set the id attribute to the Tweet ID number on Twitter; you can identify the ID number from a tweet by looking at the URL of the tweet.
