WP to Twitter posts a Twitter status update from your WordPress blog using your URL shortening service to provide a link back to your post from Twitter.

Make a Pledge at Fundry.

The plugin supports a default message template for updating or editing posts and pages, supports your custom post types, and also allows you to write a custom Tweet for each post which says whatever you want, using a selection of custom shortcodes to generate your text.

Additional features include:

  • Use tags as Twitter hashtags
  • Use alternate URLs in place of post permalinks
  • Support for Google Analytics

Any status update you write which is longer than the available space will automatically be truncated by the plugin. This applies to both the default messages and to your custom messages.
