Birdfeed twitter plugin

Post by zimmo »

Hi all,

Is anyone else using the this plugin? I have just found its not feeding any twitter feeds at all, no errors either just a blank section where the tweets were loading before.

Anyone help at all???

I read somewhere Twitter recently made some changes so a lot of those modules and plugins don't work anymore

If you click on Bug tracker tab from the link you posted you will see I posted a bug report. As staartmees says it is due to a change at Twitter. As a result BirdFeed isn't working.

You'll have more luck with module "Twitter" (TweetMadeSimple). It suffers from the same issue but the solution has been posted as part of this bug report:

There's also the TweetFeed plugin, we just updated it to work with v1.1 API from Twitter, it does require registering with Twitter as an app. http://twitter.com/apps/new

You could also go into your Twitter settings and create a widget that will generate HTML for any twitter feed you want, and put that into a UDT which can then be inserted into your site.

Your problem depends exclusively on Twitter dropping the API v.1
As suggested you may want to take a look to modules taking advantage of API 1.1 ;-)
