Please report back and let us know what you can find, or install it and try it and see what you can do.

We consider abuse a rule breaker and would quickly penalize the perpetrator. Maybe kick them to a subgroup like Banned Users for a while.

Thanks for the advice, Videx.

We run as libertarian a forum as we can and you'd pretty much need to kill someone to get banned :D

This Mod isn't a million miles away from what I want, except it posts to an individuals Twitter account rather than the forums.

I'm not even as skilled a coder to claim to be a novice and I appreciate it's too much to ask someone to carry out this level of mod for me, but I'll plod along and try some stuff to see if I can fluke success and if anyone else is interested and has the skills to complete it and then share then all the better :)

What great timing - Thanks very much Simon and I'll look forward to your work settling down and if you get a chance to add that then it would be great :)

Ok, i've knocked something up, those of you wishing to beta test the new xml with usergroup selection then send me a pm - i haven't had time to test because im at work so you'll be my guinea pig, if all is well then i'll post it here and contact Mosh and see if he'll upload it to the main post.

In this version i've made it so that selected usergroups CANNOT use the twitter app at all!

Simon Lloyd 07-03-2013 05:06 PM

Thanks to Liff who has just offered to beta test the usergroup amedment, anyone else want to test just pm me.

Sadly, we have a large Twitter following and sadly some untrustworthy (And drunk!) members who would abuse the facility.

I may have missed this over the 50 pages so far, but is it possible to limit this to usergroups or to only tweet threads with a specific thread prefix (as I think you can limit those to usergroups?)

Or, to simplify.. Is there any way to choose which threads you'd like to tweet once they are open?

Sorry for the questions and thanks in advance to anyone kind enough to reply.

The way I work it is to use the forum selection in the settings, I have hidden forums that only Admin and Mods use, these are the only one that are tweeted.

Hope this helps

I think you may have misspoke? What would be the point of publicly tweeting your hidden forums?

Of course I have our admin forums disabled from tweeting. But this is what we already said - using usergroups to limit tweets by limiting access to certain forums. Not quite the same thing as being able to directly assign usergroups to tweet (or not).

Ik hope somebody can help me. I have disabled hash tags, but do use bit.ly. I already had an app running from another tweet post thing and used those codes and keys, which should be fine.

Installed the mod as should be, but when I start a new thread, this error appears:
Quote:

{"errorCode": 0, "errorMessage": "", "results": {"http://www.myforums.org/board/showthread.php?t=14483": {"userHash": "1xxxx", "shortKeywordUrl": "", "hash": "1baPagj", "shortCNAMEUrl": "http://bit.ly/1xxxx", "shortUrl": "http://bit.ly/1xxxx"}}, "statusCode": "OK"}
I cloaked my forum url and the bit.ly url a bit.
I'm running 3.8.7.

What am I doing wrong, how can I fix this?

Black Tiger 07-04-2013 10:59 PM

Seems the problem lies within the bit.ly support.
When I disable that and set it to "is.gd" then it works, but it's only showing the thread title of a new thread.
No text at all.

Is there a way to fix both problems?

The first is an easy solution - just don't use bit.ly. The second is by design I think. Just a title and a link. Might be a good feature request for the guy working on the newer version with the usergroup permissions.

Sounds a bit complicated though. You would have to ignore quotes and links and attachments. Then you would have to count the total length including the title and the link (shortened or not) and truncate at the previous word(s). If truncated, add <read more> at the end.

I doubt I would want to enable it, but who knows it might be worth a try.
