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
  1. Upload files in the /upload/ folder of the .zip into the directories as is.
  2. Install product file.
  3. Register an OAuth Application here, using:
  4. Click Install on vB.org
  5. Tell Your users.
  6. Enjoy
Upgrading to v1.0.4
  • Upload all files, overwrite everything.
  • Install product file.
  • Register an OAuth Application here, using:
  • Gain and copy the Consumer Key & Secret into vBulletin Options.
Upgrading to v1.0.3 or before.
  • Upload all files, overwrite everything.
  • install product file.
  • Remove template edits. For the record, they are here:
    • Open the postbit or postbit_legacy template (depending on what you use). Find:

      <if condition="$show['postcount']">#<a href="showpost.php?$session[sessionurl]p=$post[postid]&amp;postcount=$post[postcount]" target="new" rel="nofollow" id="postcount$post[postid]" name="$post[postcount]"><strong>$post[postcount]</strong></a></if>
      Add before that:
      HTML Code:
      <if condition="$post['twitter_username']"><a href="tweet.php?do=post&amp;id=$post[postid]&amp;c=$post[postid]">Tweet this post!</a></if>
    • Open the SHOWTHREAD template.
      Find:
      HTML Code:

      	</tr>
      	</if>
      Add After:
      HTML Code:
      	<if condition="$vbulletin->userinfo['twitter_username']">
      	<tr>
      		<td class="vbmenu_option">
      			<a href="tweet.php?do=thread&ampid=$threadinfo[threadid]">Tweet This  Thread!</a>
      		</td>
      	</tr>
      	</if>
      Find:
      HTML Code:
      		<if condition="!$show['search_engine']">
      
      			<div><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/printer.gif" alt="$vbphrase[show_printable_version]" vspace="1" /> <a href="printthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$threadid" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[show_printable_version]</a></div>
      			<div><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/sendtofriend.gif" alt="$vbphrase[email_this_page]" vspace="1" /> <a href="sendmessage.php?$session[sessionurl]do=sendtofriend&amp;t=$threadid" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[email_this_page]</a></div>
      		</if>
      Add After:
      HTML Code:
      		<if condition="$vbulletin->userinfo['twitter_username']"><a href="tweet.php?do=thread&amp;id=$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!

New install on 3.8.2 with no problems at all, thanks for this!!

Dumb question time though - does this take in the forum permissions?

We have some private forums for admins and mods and if they tweek a post in the private section will anyone else see the post on the members twitter home page.

They will see the link, yes, but once it relays them to the thread or post vBulletin takes over and says "NO!" and doesn't let them view.
