• I have some fixes for the twitter support. 1st change makes it tolerant of entering your twittername with space at the beginning or end:

    +$username = trim($twittername); // Your twitter username.
     if ($username == ""){
     	$username = "wordpress";
     	}

    2nd change makes the server automatically create the twitter cache file if it doesn’t exist, and alerts you if the file can’t be written by the server:

    -        $cache_static=@fopen($twitter_cache_file,'wb');
    +        $cache_static=fopen($twitter_cache_file,'wb');
             @fwrite($cache_static,$content);
             @fclose($cache_static);
         }

    Both of these changes are in functions.php … if you can’t figure out the diff format, just change the line that is marked “-” at the beginning to the version that is marked “+”.

  • I made these changes to my functions.php. However, I’m still not able to obtain my twitter tweets within my page. Can you help me?
