1) Open "Web.config" file present inside the installation directory of Spotfire Web Player 7.0.
2) Search for the "publicUrlForTwitterShares" tag.
3) Enter a public Web Player URL as the value for the tag using the syntax shown here:
publicUrlForTwitterShares="http://X.X.X.X:8089/SpotfireWeb"
4) Restart your Spotfire Web Player application pool.
