Problems extending Twitter Tools

We were trying to build an add-on plugin the past coupled of days. I want to be able to create blog posts from tweets with only a specific hash tag. I’m not a programmer myself so I enlisted the help of some friends. Both said that there is something that isn’t working. From one email conversation:

There seems to be a problem with the “aktt_do_tweet_post” filter. The author’s examples’ arguments don’t match with what I’m seeing in the twitter-tools.php itself.

Here is one simple example (without adding fields to the admin panel, etc.) that just didn’t work.

// ini_set('display_errors', '1'); ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL);

function dont_post_tweet($tweet, $post) {
    if (!strpos($tweet->tw_text, '#blog')) {
        // will not tweet
        return false;
    }
    else {
        // must return the $tweet to send it
        return $tweet;
    }
}
add_filter('aktt_do_blog_post_tweet', 'dont_post_tweet', 10, 2)

?>

Any help would be appreciated. I don’t want to modify the original plugin but as proof of concept, one guy added

if (!strpos($tweet->tw_text, '#postme')) {
			return;
		}

at line 537 in twitter-tools.php

Thanks! It’s a great plugin otherwise and I’ve been using it for the last year or so.
