Does this work with 3.7.X?? Or is there a version for it? I've looked around to no avail. Thanks!

If you read the main post...So I would assume yes, give it a try ;)

This modification should work on vBulletin v3.5+, but was only tested on a vB 3.8 install.

Yeah I Saw I was just hoping that someone who actually installed on a 3.7.x install would have confirmed that it works...;)

I'll kick the tires on my site a little but it's strange how it just suddenly stopped working. I'll update this post if I find a reason for the problem.

Anyone else get a sudden stop today?

Thanks.

You may have hit the rate limit (100/hr) and vBTwitter does not handle this as well as it could. You just get THAT generic message. I will see about managing that message better in the future (doing a check only when needed).

Again, a few more tries, reinstall product, uninstall, install, reupload... still the same... can't save the password...



FireFish means password field remains empty...

Can you PM me so that I can view your install?

I just get a blank white screen with this message after clicking "Tweet this thread":

In the description it has
Quote:

This modification adds basic Twitter integration to vBulletin. Once a user defines their Twitter username & password within their vB Options (User CP -> Edit Options), the Tweet This X links will appear.
where is this "tweet this" suppose to appear so I can click on it?


Also when I typed in my username and password in my usercp and clicked saved, nothing happen except username and password are save there. Was anything else suppose to happen?

I am getting a file error everytime I try to extract the zip file, change directory, rename, move zip file, redownload, etc.

Windows says, "There is already a file with the same name as the folder name you specified. Specify a different name."

mcyates 04-21-2009 08:45 AM

I get a blank screen after i add my username and password into the edit options oart of my site inside the usercp.

bryanb 04-21-2009 11:45 AM

I'm getting the same message as some others:

Quote:

"We're sorry, but the Username and Password provided within your User CP could not be authenticated. Please modify either your Username or Password to match your current Twitter Username / Password and try again."
I've uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks!

deathdlr 04-21-2009 07:06 PM

I didnt read through the many many pages. I am curious will this work the the vbulletin blog as well? I have both this mod and the blog but can't find a way to tweet the blogs.

Thanks!

Usually a sign that Mcrypt is not installed.

You may be getting a rate limit error message... Can you confirm after a fresh hour (like NO twitter clients open of an hour).

D?

Currently doesn't support blogs.

I believe there is something wrong with the zip file. I redownloaded and I am recieving the same error.

My Twitter account is rather quiet - it's still a no go. I've had a mod fill in his twitter username and password in his User CP - doesn't work for him either.

Does your website have Mcrypt installed?

Yep, version 2.5.7 is enabled.

cmeinck 04-27-2009 01:29 PM

First off, thanks to the developer. This is a great mod and looking forward to future updates.

During my testing during install, I posted a quick "Check this out... [URL]" tweet. Within a few minutes, I garnered a complaint about how it looked like a non-descript marketing message (which I agree). I customized the message a bit, but it will certainly show up in related searches for my field. I'm concerned that if it catches on, it might alienate some Twitterers. As the site owner, I'm not going to tweet my own horn, but what if others do and do it often. Sure it'll garner some traffic, but might cause some brushback.

The inclusion of titles will resolve this, but how are people making out with the current version. Any negative feedback from your audience or the greater Twitter community?

jaredwilli 04-27-2009 03:01 PM

Is it possible to make it so the title of the thread is posted instead of "check this out"?

Yes, just go to "Phrases" and search for twitter_checkout. Edit the phrase to your liking.

The issue is whether "generic" tweets could adversely affect you? The developer mentioned a future version that will use thread titles. This mod will officially become a killer mod once that's available.:D

And to what should he change the phrase? The threadtitle is dynamic...
No, atm it's not possible!

cmeinck 04-27-2009 06:52 PM

Something more specific to your site. "Check this out" is too generic. I've gone with Informative [myForumTopic] @[mytwitter account] URL.

For example, let's say your site was regarding Baseball.

Informative Baseball forum post @baseballforums http://www.mlb.com

Check and search your PHP info in the ACP.

yea... we've been saying that for ages. .like 4 months now I think.

But i'm not sure how close they are to a new mod. I'm kinda thinking about developing this myself. I think King is too busy and well...Nobody on my site wants to use the twitter plugin in its current form. They are excited about it but its not practical and they quickly stop using it.

*shrug* I know King knows this... So if he doesn't have the time or thinks it will take more then 1 more month I really wish he would let us know.

A lot of Mod devs have a schedule so people know when beta, alphas, and stable releases will be available.

Ocean-Wonders 05-05-2009 07:46 AM

I've installed it but when i click tweet this thread or post i get the error

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /home/sites/ocean-wonders.co.uk/public_html/messageboard/includes/twitter.php on line 29

What am I doing wrong ??

I do not see this button anywhere on my site even though I can access user cp tweetter setting and set.

BTW the file is in the folder and it the correct folder is image/buttons not images/misc

I do not see it on my site. Where is is suppose to appear?

auctionguy 05-05-2009 08:31 AM

Can anyone tell me how to install, or where I find Mcrpyt?

I would like to install this plugin.

Thanks in advance!

I asked my hosting provider if I had those two necessary application on my server. They said yes.

Contact you hosting provider for your server.

auctionguy 05-05-2009 01:29 PM

I just installed the plugin and it is showing active in the plugin manager but there are no signs of Twiiter in the VB options nor are there any in the threads or thread tools.

I uploaded everything and I imported the XML correctly I blieve and I even un-installed and then installed again and nothing...

I am using 3.8.2 with the default VB template.

Help???

auctionguy 05-05-2009 02:43 PM

I checked everything and all of the files are in place and the plugin is showing active in the plugin manager and I even put in the manual template edits but still nothing.

I still have no VBtwitter in the adminCP except in the plugin manager, and yes it shows active and I still have nothing in any of the threads or thread tools.

TOTALLY WIERD!! I may have to uninstall and I don't want to!!

I needed to add my Twitter user and password for one and I didn't realize that it was for new posts only!

It is working like a champ now!!

Thanks for that help post though!

This is a rare occurrence that I have no idea how to fix, for the fact that I have taken a file sent to me from someone receiving this, and it worked perfectly. I also cleaned the file up and verified the checking.

You need to add your details in the User CP.

Did you add your detailes in the User CP? If so, it should appear in the "Thread Tools" and Next to "#X" in posts.

Yes, a lot of mod developers do have schedules, when that is their only problem. With me paying for a car; school; and a job, my life hasn't had time to focus on anything. I am not sure what ragtek has done, but several facets that many have asked for are already implemented, just not for anyone to use yet. What I don't get is the fact that everyone believes that I should dedicate all my free time to developing this and my other modifications, when I do this for free, as a hobby. That alone should mean that I shouldn't be placed into a schedule that you all expect. My schedule will and always will be "when it is done" as that gives you the best possible product -- with minimal bugs. Now if I sounded harsh, I just spent this entire day working and doing homework, and in my ten minutes of spare time, I come on here to support this.

GotWalked 05-06-2009 07:27 PM

I had that same problem:

I found my server was running php 4, so i installed php 5+ on my server, now the app works fine, so anyone further with this problem, log into your admin CP, check your php version, as OP said, must be 5+. Hope this helps to any noobs so you don't have to go searching 27 pages worth of stuff.

nick-harper 05-07-2009 01:46 PM

I have installed PHP5, mcrypt but when I try to insert my Twitter User and Pass it just gives me a blank white screen?

This is on profile.php?do=updateoptions

Thanks

That has usually been indicative of not having mcrypt.

jammiedodger546 05-07-2009 08:35 PM

After importing the product and uploading the files, there is no reference to vBTwitter in my admin or user cp.

marshal_ramdev 05-07-2009 08:51 PM
