Not sure whether anyone has made the Dev aware of this, but it now ignores the Forum Limiter (vB 4.1.0 PL2) and is tweeting from EVERY forum, including those with restricted access. Very not cool.

Hi,

I use the RSS feeder built into Vbulletin.

How can I enable this MOD to post to twitter when a RSS feed is posted on my forum?

Thanks

It does work as advertised. I use it on my forum and it is uses vBulletin 4.1.0 PL2 and it does not ignore forum exclusions.... also, more than 200 people have updated to this version since it was released in November 2010, and not a single one has come back with having this issue, and if it was an issue it would have been reported long before now.

Your issue is probably going to be either AdminCP settings not configured correctly, another hack conflicting with this one and causing the issue or you have made alterations to this hack that cause it to not work.

So, with that out of the way, lets start with you posting a screenshot of your AdminCP setting for this hack (with the API information removed for security purposes) and we will take it from there.

If you read the Frequently Asked Questions section in the first post, this hack does not support that, and will not be updated to do that in later versions. So, that will be something you will need to look into yourself.

Hi,

I understand that, thought you might be able to point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Without investigating how RSS feeds work and which file hooks are available where, and as I am not really interested in adding this, and having too little free time to investigate things I am interested in, then I can not really point you in the right direction... hence I advised you that you need to look at it yourself... maybe another member will be able to give you a hint.

Absolutely fantastic, thank you very much Mosh, working perfectly on 4.1.1, this is superb, thank you again. :)

*ps, nominated for MOTM ;)

Update: v4.0.6
-- Changed: Hack name
-- Updated: Installation/Upgrade/Removal Instructions file
-- Updated: Screenshots
-- Fixed: New Threads, Replies & Quick Replies in twitter enabled forums are only tweeted when they will not end up on the moderation queue
-- Fixed: Hashtags now work in vBulletin v3.8.x (hack tested and working.... not tested on v3.7.x nor v3.6.x but should also work)
-- Added: Install code to ensure all server requirements are met and all folders and files have been uploaded before the hack will install
-- Added: AdminCP Options to allow for both User & AdminCP defined Hashtags for new threads in twitter enabled forums
-- Added: Two plugins to aid in diagnosing problems with this hack (disabled by default)

Awesome, many thanks for that fix! :up:

I don't think it was a great idea to take the word "twitter" out of the title. Since adding it, the mod was much easier to find in a search.
