Support/Comments for Twitter Feeds 1.0.0-Final

This is an auto-generated topic for <a href="http://modxcms.com/extras/package/672">Twitter Feeds 1.0.0-Final</a> by Mayanktaker.

Brief Description:
* The snippet only pulls the latest tweet from the RSS, no timestamps or other information.

* The snippet is pulling from a file on the Twitter servers, so you are still depending on that file being active.

* As this snippet is pulling from an outside file, you still might experience some delay. Though the delay exists, it isn&apos;t much a difference from the JavaScript method that is currently available.

Thanks for the snippet,

What’s the ’normal’ delay for tweets using this snippet?

Seems to take over 2hours for me which is way to long as you can imagine. Any reasons for this?

Cheers

it seems the version of the file available for download is misnamed, it saves as twitter no extension....
It would be cool to know that you need to open it using your zipper....

This is to help people that tried and ... tried !

Thanks for the snippet anyway

Probably a space in the filename. The repository download breaks the filename at a space.

Found a problem with the snippet while using URL rewriting

correction is adding the line :

$tweet = str_replace("&quot;", "’", $tweet);

after the two lines :

$tweet = str_replace("&lt;", "<", $tweet);
$tweet = str_replace("&gt;", ">", $tweet);

the correction allow people to click on the links even with URL rewriting enabled.

There is still one issue for me, even with &rpp=10 I only grab one line of the tweets....

Thanks again anyway for the work already done.

Has anyone had any success with this snippet?

I have installed correctly but no tweets are being pulled through?

The prefix and suffix text is appearing fine but no tweets in between?

Any ideas?

I haven’t tried this code, but instead took the approach seen here
http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,51695.msg331681.html#msg331681
to get one or more twitter lines from a feed.

If I read the description of this one correctly, it only pulls one tweet (the latest one).
