2.2.1

  • Typo-fix that should allow resetting digests properly (not sure when this broke, thanks lionel_chollet).

2.2

  • The use of the native json_encode() function, required by the changes in WordPress 2.9 (version 2.1) created a problem for users with servers running 32-bit PHP. the json_decode() function treats the tweet ID field as an integer instead of a string, which causes the issues. Thanks to Joe Tortuga and Ciaran Walsh for sending in the fix.
