I don't like widgets!</p> <p>This means that you'll have to edit your theme's sidebar.php (or whichever page you want to display it on - I've included a special "Tweets" page on my site, and inserted the code inside the loop).</p> <p>I believe there is a way to get this into your widgets, but I haven't tried that.</p> <p>Best of luck! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/334006#post-1293761 Wed, 25 Nov 2009 20:10:18 +0000 ancawonka 1293761@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Good grief! I just came here to ask about this.</p> <p>Are you pasting this code into your site, or into a Text widget in your sidebar? I got the code from Twitter, but when I paste it into a text widget, the "script" tag gets stripped off and the JS displays as just text. Is this normal behavior? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/334006#post-1293754 Wed, 25 Nov 2009 20:07:14 +0000 JacoGriesel 1293754@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Ignore EVERYTHING I wrote above! Here's a VERY nice script, and it's straight from Twitter. Just paste the code wherever you want to display your tweets, and make the styling changes you want. Alternatively, you can go to <a href="http://twitter.com/goodies/widgets" rel="nofollow">http://twitter.com/goodies/widgets</a> to set up your own widget.</p> <pre><code>&lt;script src=&quot;http://widgets.twimg.com/j/2/widget.js&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script&gt; new TWTR.Widget({ version: 2, type: &#39;profile&#39;, rpp: 4, interval: 6000, width: 240, height: 70, theme: { shell: { background: &#39;#f59f0a&#39;, color: &#39;#000000&#39; }, tweets: { background: &#39;#214a68&#39;, color: &#39;#ffffff&#39;, links: &#39;#ecfa25&#39; } }, features: { scrollbar: true, loop: false, live: true, hashtags: true, timestamp: true, avatars: true, behavior: &#39;all&#39; } }).render().setUser(&#39;YOUTTWITTERUSERNAME&#39;).start(); &lt;/script&gt;</code></pre> <p>It works perfect on my site! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/334006#post-1291022 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 14:52:49 +0000 JacoGriesel 1291022@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>OK, here's a home-made hack I've devised. Copy the following into your functions.php:</p> <pre><code>function LastTwitter() { $options = get_option(&#39;widget_Twidget&#39;); $account = $options[&#39;account&#39;]; // Your Twitter account name $title = $options[&#39;title&#39;]; // Title in sidebar for widget $show = $options[&#39;show&#39;]; // # of Updates to show echo &#39;&lt;div id=&quot;twitter_div&quot;&gt;&#39; .$before_title.$title.$after_title; echo &#39;&lt;ul id=&quot;twitter_update_list&quot;&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot; src=&quot;http://twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&#39;; echo &#39;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot; src=&quot;http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/&#39;.$account.&#39;.json?callback=twitterCallback2&amp;count=&#39;.$show.&#39;&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&#39;; } function Twidget_control() { $options = array(&#39;account&#39;=&gt;&#39;YourTwitterAccountName&#39;, &#39;title&#39;=&gt;&#39;&#39;, &#39;show&#39;=&gt;&#39;1&#39;); }</code></pre> <p>In the second last line, enter your Twitter account name, as well as the number of tweets to display.</p> <p>In my sidebar, I did the following:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div id=&quot;twitterstatus&quot;&gt; &lt;div id=&quot;twitterlogo&quot;&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;YourTwitterRSSFeedURI&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;&lt;?php bloginfo(&#39;template_url&#39;); ?&gt;/images/social/twitterbanner.png&quot; alt=&quot;Get our Twitter feed&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; title=&quot;Get our Twitter feed&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Latest Tweets&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;?php LastTwitter(); ?&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!--END: twitterstatus--&gt;</code></pre> <p>For some reason, the title in the function doesn't show up in the sidebar, by I side-stepped that by adding my own title in the sidebar (the &lt;h2&gt;...&lt;/h2&gt; part)</p> <p>I used/hacked Sean Spalding's Twitter Widget ( <a href="http://seanys.com/2007/10/12/twitter-wordpress-widget/" rel="nofollow">http://seanys.com/2007/10/12/twitter-wordpress-widget/</a> ) - hope nobody minds!</p> <p>Let me know if it's working for you! </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/333958#post-1289750 Sun, 22 Nov 2009 03:58:19 +0000 jvinch 1289750@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>The common approach for tools is to create individual posts of Tweets.

Is there a way to get each sentence I tweet to append itself to the end of a single wordpress post so by the time I'm done tweeting it all, the post looks like the original block of text? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/245382/page/2#post-1289470 Sat, 21 Nov 2009 21:12:33 +0000 Dave333 1289470@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Thanks for chiming in anyway Gary.</p> <p>I've given up on the weekly post.

I've sat longer than 10 minutes and have not seen any additional tweets added to the db.</p> <p>Nothing changed, still no posts to blog from Twitter Tools.</p> <p>The one thing in your list I couldn't do was:</p> <p>deleted aktt_ setting references from the db via phpmyadmin</p> <p>I was unable to find this "aktt_" setting.

You mentioned a 1 and a 0 but it's not clear from what you wrote what needs to be done or where. You referred to wfzimmerman's solution. Here is was he wrote:</p> <blockquote><p>I am pretty sure I just solved my problem. "akk_doing_digest" is set to "1", where i suspect the program left it after my %^@# provider killed the process. </p></blockquote> <p>So is the solution to set this to 0?</p> <p>Where is "akk_doing_digest" located? </p> <p>I have looked in the tables in PhpMyAdmin but can't see any such table. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/331894#post-1281852 Sun, 15 Nov 2009 04:39:41 +0000 whooami 1281852@http://wordpress.org/support/ <blockquote><p>I would do a plugin search, but I'm honestly not sure what to search for</p></blockquote> <blockquote><p> <strong>Twitter</strong> or <strong>Facebook</strong></p></blockquote> <p><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=twitter" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=twitter</a></p> <p><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=facebook" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=facebook</a> </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/331894#post-1281808 Sun, 15 Nov 2009 02:19:31 +0000 ClaytonJames 1281808@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>See if anything here offers inspiration.
