[DBTech] Tweet Poster v1 (vB4)
 
1 Attachment(s)
Instantly share new threads posted in select forums to Twitter with this nifty modification. Supports adding hash tags and automatically trims your thread titles to fit within the 140 character limit.

Why use Tweet Poster?

Tweet Poster allows your users to stay up to date with your forums' news even while they're not at the computer, by having new threads posted in certain forums automatically post to your Twitter feed.
Additionally, search engines tend to prioritise links found on social media websites.

You can also optionally append hash tags to your automatic tweets, further increasing your exposure by making sure your tweets show up in searches for specific trends.

Is it possible to limit posting new threads only if author 's got more than "x" posts...

To avoid spam...

Thanks

DragonByte Tech 08-03-2013 06:33 PM
It was originally designed to work with forums that have "news forums" that only staff can post via, so not at this time. You can see the full range of options in the screenshots :)

Feel free to post a new Feature Request thread here: http://www.dragonbyte-tech.com/f234/ and we'll take it into consideration for future versions :)

tuRiver 08-04-2013 05:44 PM
I can't make it work, i've filled all fine in admincp.

Nevermind, it was a permission setting

Nice modification, hope it works with the Instant New Thread Modification.

But, a little problem here, in the "Source Forums" option, there's no options at all, just a "forums:all" text. vBulletin 4.08.

I'm sorry to hear you are unwilling to attempt to resolve the mod conflict you're experiencing (ref. the thread @ our forum). If another user surfaces that is willing to answer our questions we'll be able to resolve it :)

We've not tested it with that modification, but presuming it uses the thread DataManager then it will work :)

Your vB version is probably too old to support the forum selector. Please try upgrading to vB 4.1.12 or vB 4.2.0 :)


@all: This Friday we'll be releasing a Patch Level 1 that fixes issues with posting special characters (such as Arabic text) - or you can grab a hotfixed version @ our site right now :)

Hi,

thanks for the response, but, I'll not upgrade my forum so soon (templates issues). There's nothing that could be done?

DragonByte Tech 08-07-2013 01:33 PM
EDIT: You may be able to add the feature to your vB version by editing /includes/adminfunctions_options.php, I'll download 4.0.8 and see if I can find the changes needed.

EDIT 2: Find:
PHP Code:
        // just a label
        default:
        {
            $handled = false;
            ($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('admin_options_print')) ? eval($hook) : false;
            if (!$handled)
            {
                eval("\$right = \"<div id=\\\"ctrl_setting[$setting[varname]]\\\">$setting[optioncode]</div>\";");
                print_label_row($description, $right, '', 'top', $name, 50);
            }
        } 
Add above
PHP Code:
        case 'forums:all':
        {
            $array = construct_forum_chooser_options(-1,$vbphrase['all']);
            $size = sizeof($array);

            $vbphrase[forum_is_closed_for_posting] = $vbphrase[closed];
            print_select_row($description, $name.'[]', $array, unserialize($setting['value']), false, ($size > 10 ? 10 : $size), true);
        }
        break;

        case 'forums:none':
        {
            $array = construct_forum_chooser_options(0,$vbphrase['none']);
            $size = sizeof($array);

            $vbphrase[forum_is_closed_for_posting] = $vbphrase[closed];
            print_select_row($description, $name.'[]', $array, unserialize($setting['value']), false, ($size > 10 ? 10 : $size), true);
        }
        break; 
Find
PHP Code:
                else if (preg_match('#^usergroup:[0-9]+$#', $oldsetting['optioncode']))
                {
                    // serialize the array of usergroup inputs
                    if (!is_array($settings["$oldsetting[varname]"]))
                    {
                         $settings["$oldsetting[varname]"] = array();
                    }
                    $settings["$oldsetting[varname]"] = array_map('intval', $settings["$oldsetting[varname]"]);
                    $settings["$oldsetting[varname]"] = serialize($settings["$oldsetting[varname]"]);
                } 
Replace with
PHP Code:
                else if (preg_match('#^(usergroup|forum)s?:([0-9]+|all|none)$#', $oldsetting['optioncode']))
                {
                    // serialize the array of usergroup inputs
                    if (!is_array($settings["$oldsetting[varname]"]))
                    {
                         $settings["$oldsetting[varname]"] = array();
                    }
                    $settings["$oldsetting[varname]"] = array_map('intval', $settings["$oldsetting[varname]"]);
                    $settings["$oldsetting[varname]"] = serialize($settings["$oldsetting[varname]"]);
                } 
This may or may not work and is entirely untested / unsupported!

I gave you what i know.Even server log info.If that didn't help then the mod needs to be re-visited.You left out few important feature that you should have posted that others should look into when installing the this mod

* Make sure that the server is running json
* Make sure server is running Curl and openssl is enable

When in twitter dev console make sure to enable read/write feature is selected.Because in read option.It will not allow your post to show up in Twitter.And that what i explained when nothing was showing up in twitter when i did a test post.

Good Luck and Have a Great Day !!!!

Unfortunately that's not how it works :(

You left multiple questions un-answered, including follow-up questions to your response.

If we had been unable to resolve your issue remotely, I would have offered to visit your site and look into it there :)

I was unaware that there existed servers without these features enabled. I will look into adding pre-install checks to ensure these features are available before the modification will install :)

This is already explained in the installation instructions (Section 4, Step 4-5) :)

Thank you Fillip, it worked =)

Unfortunately the plugin is not compatible with Instant New Thread Notification. As soon as INTN is activated, after submitting a new thread that will be tweeted, it'll be created, tweeted and instantly notified. But there is no redirect to the created thread, the screen will simply hang on in the thread form screen.

Since there's no more support to the other mod (the code is re-usable), there's anything that could be done to solve this?

DragonByte Tech 08-07-2013 11:35 PM
I cannot download that modification to test it so I couldn't say, sorry :(

There are no files attached to that modification.

Hi Fillip,

I think I found the problem, it seems that the Instant New Thread Notification plugin, when activated with the Tweet plugin, will only redirect to the created topic when it finishes sending the email notifications to all subscribed users. This could take some time when there are a lot of subscribed users.

Since there's no more support in the INTN plugin (it is Re-usable Code now), there's something that could be done so it releases the topic before the process of sending the emails?

ozzy47 08-18-2013 02:00 PM
Just for reference, the mod he is talking about is here, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...hlight=instant

This is exactly the reason why instant thread notifications are not implemented in vBulletin, so unfortunately there's nothing that I can see that can be done :(

In either case, this isn't the correct thread to discuss that mod :)

I understand, anyway, thank you very much, hope someone could take the development of that plugin.

On a side note, this latest version of the Tweet Poster solved something that plagued other plugins in the past: an incompatibility issue with twitter and topics with accentuation in the titles that prevent them to be tweeted. This is working now =)

"Read-only application cannot POST."

What a great little mod. Very nice.

When a new Thread is created the Twitter post creates this text for the link: http://www.vBulletin-site.com/showthread.php?t=x

It is possible this text to be the Thread link text instead? Would look much better SEO-wise.

DragonByte Tech 06-01-2014 03:20 PM
We'll look into it for a future version :)

looker2010 06-13-2014 04:13 PM
just installed. Tried test new thread and nothing happened over on our twitter. Also received no errors. can you advise?

jrw422dx 06-15-2014 04:40 PM
I see this is for auto posting to twitter. I am looking for a twitter plug in similar to the facebook that has a "like" or "post to" similar to how Face book works and not automatically post to twitter when you make a new post or thread. Am I making sense?

I want to click on a twitter button to tweet just that particular post I want to tweet out.

Will this do that and if not can someone pointy me to a current one that will work with the twitter updates. I have read on some that the hack stopped working.

Oh and I am running 4.2.2 and fixing to upgrade to 5.0 Please advise if there is something that is available that I am looking for.

Make sure you have followed the steps to create an app on your Twitter account, and given it permission to post new tweets.

Our DragonByte SEO product has social sharing features, but if you're not looking for URL rewrites as well, it may be overkill for your needs. BOP5 has a mod dedicated to social sharing, though I don't recall the name of it just now.

Anyone know where this is? I did a search and found nothing. Most everything I have looked at in the mods say it wont work with 4.2.2 or is not what I am looking for. Any one up to the task of creating it?

Oh I did find one the maybe will work but you have to use that tiny url service and that is something else I am not fond of. :D

Hey!

First of all, great mod - have been using it for a while on a news website and it works perfectly with twitter.

I was wondering - would it be possible to limit this to specific users? that only when they post a message it will be tweeted?

Could be of enormous use... thanks!

RisingGlow 08-25-2014 05:21 AM
How do I include prefixes for tweeting?

Hey Fillip,

a little bird sang me a song this morning, there would be a facebookPoster v0.x in the pipe. Any chance to get an ETA on that? Such a poster would be something I (almost) would kill for :D
