Description
This modification adds basic Twitter integration to vBulletin. Once a user defines their Twitter username & password within their vB Options (User CP -> Edit Options), the Tweet This X links will appear.
It automatically adds a tweet to their account with the default text of "Check this out! " (which can be edited editing the "twitter_checkout" phrase) and uses your forum URL with either tp or tt.php as the link. These redirect to the thread / post that was tweeted.
Installation
Upload files in the /upload/ folder of the .zip into the directories as is.
<if condition="$vbulletin->userinfo['twitter_username']"><a href="tweet.php?do=thread&id=$threadinfo[threadid]">Tweet This Thread!</a></if>
Requirements
THIS MODIFICATION REQUIRES PHP 5 DUE TO THE CLASS THAT IS USED!
PHP'S CURL EXTENSION IS ALSO USED! THE API CALLS ARE COMPLETELY DEPENDENT ON THEM!
This modification should work on vBulletin v3.5+, but was only tested on a vB 3.8 install.
Using the "tp.php" switch added in v1.0.2
With the release of v1.0.2, a switch between showpost.php?p=ID&postcount=COUNT and showthread.php?p=ID#postID has been added. Using it is simple, but requires a code edit (Note: This is a SUPPORTED code edit!). Open up tp.php and find this line:
PHP Code:
define('SHOWPOST', true);
Change that line to this:
PHP Code:
define('SHOWPOST', false);
This will automatically trigger the change any time it is loaded. This works retroactively and any links will automatically use the new settings once changed!
is it right to be posted with link not by title?
my title is only "introduce yourself" why its posted as a link in twitter? Check this out! http://myurl/tt.php?i=14444
cant change to Check this out! Introduce yourself
and the last one, why it has to be with this ess than 5 seconds ago from vBTwitter
can i change vbtwitter to WEB or myurl? i dont want ppl mislink to here.
thanks for this great mod kovivor
You can change "Check this out!" to what ever you want... Modify the phrase "twitter_checkout". And yes, it will say from vBTwitter. That won't change. Look at any Twitter account that doesn't strictly use the website and you will see something different. It's my source parameter just like Tweetie and TweetDeck.
no i know we can change the check this out, i mean why it posted with a link, but not the thread titles?
in mine check this out! myurl.com/tt.php?i=id ->i mean like this check this out! its april fools! ->
can i change to title?
