 * Hi,
 * I have just finished installing the plugin. However, it says on my homepage (
   www.whatishappeningnow.org) “problem retreiving data from Twitter”.
 * I think I might have done something wrong when copying the consumer key + secret
   and access key + secret into the settings. This is what is looks like now:
 * <?php
    /* Consumer Key (API Key) 3vSR3pAdTjrjsHHA63f5iBpOj Consumer Secret (API
   Secret) aw4L2XaWYnFNN99HkT74r9A5qJVnzo2ZZdw5gR97S9Q2fwilmX Access Token 3043274603-
   IfOcN6lKofXCcyjCztTwutXyhQb2w2MLzyvJGOI Access Token Secret DAZ63gYLpDidkMI1fdl76tJlKNx6vs0yn9Q2JwFcOteiq
 * Plugin Name: Rotating Tweets (Twitter widget & shortcode)
    Description: Replaces
   a shortcode such as [rotatingtweets screen_name=’your_twitter_name’], or a widget,
   with a rotating tweets display Version: 1.7.10
 * Thanks!

 * It currently looks OK. The error message you’re getting is `Twitter error code:
   92 - SSL is required`.
 * What happens if you set ‘Verify SSL connection to Twitter’ to ‘yes’?
 * It’s not generally a good idea to publish your secret keys! You need to go to
   [http://apps.twitter.com](http://apps.twitter.com) and ‘regenerate consumer key
   and secret’.

 * PS: As it says [here](https://dev.twitter.com/overview/api/response-codes), the
   SSL problem means “Only SSL connections are allowed in the API, you should update
   your request to a secure connection. See [how to connect using SSL](https://dev.twitter.com/overview/api/ssl)“.
