    I can’t authenticate Twitter no matter how many times I try. I’ve added API key and secret, plus Token and secret, I’ve specified a callback URL. When I input my information, it goes to the authenticate option where it gives a hyperlink and says (2 steps left). I hit it once, get to the “Authenticate Twitter Account” hyperlink that says (Final step). When I click that link, I get the following message:

    Whoa there!
    The request token for this page is invalid. It may have already been used, or expired because it is too old. Please go back to the site or application that sent you here and try again; it was probably just a mistake.

    I’ve deleted the account and reentered the information. I’ve done the same after refreshing both keys. I’ve put something in the callback URL box, and made sure the app has the correct permissions. I have no idea what’s going on.

    Hi,

    We clearly state on our help page
    http://efficientscripts.com/help/microblogposter/twitterhelp
    that the Callback URL is mandatory ONLY if you want to authorize interactively your account.

    In your case please do the second choice without ANY interactive authorization needed from your part. So input all four keys and your account is ready to auto publish. DON’T click on ‘Refresh authorization now’

    Best regards,
