First, like with the other mods, you will need to register a new Twitter Application (while logged with your normal Twitter account) - http://dev.twitter.com/apps/new

Note down the "Consumer Key" and "Consumer Secret" (Under App Details) as well as the "Access Token" and "Access Token Secret" (under My Access Token on the App details screen).

Step 1: Download Tijs Verkoyen's new twitter.php file (which supports OAuth) - http://classes.verkoyen.eu/modules/t...tter_2_0_1.zip

Step 2: Edit the file.

add your Access Token to "private $oAuthToken = " (line 88)
add your Access Token Secret to "private $oAuthTokenSecret =" (line 96).

Step 3: Upload it to the root directory of your forum (ie. replace your old twitter.php)

Step 4: Edit your vBulletin module, and change these two lines:

PHP Code:


		
			
$twitter = new Twitter('<twitter username>','<twitter password>');
$twitter->updateStatus($tweet);

PHP Code:


		
			
$twitter = new Twitter('<Twitter Consumer Key>', '<Twitter Consumer Secret>');
$twitter->statusesUpdate($tweet);

All should be sweet now. :D

At least, it was for me...

That worked for me - thanks v much :)

For the sake of anyone reading this post who is getting errors when they install the plugin, try fountainmass' instructions above. It's slightly difficult but it works.

I only want to post new threads to twitter after they have been rated 5 stars. This way only interesting threads are posted to twitter. If I would post all new threads to twitter then my twitterfeed would get hundreds of posts per day. This would be spammy as not all of them would be of interest to twitter followers.

Please consider to add this function.

Well that was a waste of time... Why don't they graveyard this......

This one however works fine.

Check what? If it works or not? Always read the entire thread before you install a modification. Or at the very least the last page.

I just told you how to fix it. If you aren't going to read, don't keep asking.

I'll reiterate: Some people have gotten this mod to work with extensive editing. It's in the thread, they aren't going to repeat it all again. But why bother, since there's another mod that works great.
