@ buro9
I fixed it.
I am using the following classes:
http://code.google.com/p/bitly/
http://twitter.slawcup.com/twitter.class.phps
My vbulletin plugin becomes:

PHP Code:


		
			
$excludedForums = array(0); 
     
    if (!in_array($foruminfo[forumid], $excludedForums)) { 
        $shortUrl = 'http://www.yourforumsdomain.com/showthread.php?t='.$newpost[threadid];
     
        include 'BitLy.php'; 
        $bitly = new Bitly('<bit.ly username>', '<bit.ly API key>'); 
        $shortUrl = $bitly->shortenSingle($shortUrl);  
     
        $tweet = ''; 
        if (isset($newpost['prefixid']) && $newpost['prefixid'] != '') { 
            $tweet = $vbphrase['prefix_'.$newpost['prefixid'].'_title_plain'].' '; 
        } 
        $tweet .= $newpost['title'].' '.$shortUrl;
     
    include 'twitter.php'; 
    $t= new twitter();  
    $t->username='twitter username';  
    $t->password='twitter password';  
    $t->update($tweet); 
    }

I am not getting any errors but I am not getting any updates either. I'm sure I've done everything according to the instructions.

This sounds cool I will try it out tomorrow (too tired now.) Is it possible to have it tweet blog and/or cms articles also? or only threads? Either way I will try it out tomorrow!

I had the same issue, was missing a closing } at the end, did not copy/paste correctly from the code. I'm surprised it didnt give me an error with the statement not being closed.

I have attached the error I am receiving after posting a thread. The thread posts correctly but does not send to twitter. Any advice?

I am getting the following error after posting a new thread:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init() in /home/ddddd/public_html/forums/bitly.php on line 145

I fixed my issue as well, though my problem was I didn't comment out the description at the top. Commented that out and it works amazingly.

Thanks!

Well, I swear I've been over my code 10 times with a fine tooth code-comb and it's fine. And I even had bit.ly reset my API. But I'm still getting the auth errors "You must be authenticated to access shorten on line 193 in ...".

I can disable bit.ly and the twitter stuff works.

I wonder: Can I simply exclude my Admin category number, rather than excluding each separate forum under it (moderators, super moderators, etc.)?

edit: No, you cannot exclude categories. You must list each separate forum.
