Hi all,

I'm looking for a twitter mod for 3.8 but one in particular.. As I have seen many when I was searching but couldn't find the right one.

What I'm looking for is the following: a mod that displays in a small column or wide bar the latest (few) tweets that have been posted on twitter. That displayed on the main forum page, somewhere.

Most of the mods are about tweeting forum topics to twitter itself, but I would like it otherwise. To display my tweets on my board.

A little customizable, with maybe a little button to "follow us on twitter".
Is there something like this out there? I can't find it anywhere in the mods.
Thanks for your help.

Use the RSS Feed Manager to import the feed. What you really want is a mod to display stuff from an rss feed into a column, so try a search on "feed*" in "all mods" "titles only". Or, just search for "column" in "all mods" " titles only" to find the code to make the column and then just write a bit of code to put your rss feed in there.

Ow, sounds difficult. I don't really know how to write code. I'll search for some feed or column in the mods.

I was just wondering if there isn't a ready to install mod for this, you know like a package, the whole deal. Any programmer up for this? :D

Well, the rss feed is a default vbulletin thing.

you can use the twitter badges to do this pretty easily ;)

Looks neat, but how do I integrate that into my board?

I have to copy that code into one of the template designs?
Don't know much about these modifications.. :)
