[ABD] Twitter mod 1.0.0 -- pg.2 for post subject tweeting

[platinum_2007]

I have a problem when I go into my profile, the Twitter password is not displayed in the text field. If I go and update my profile and go to save it, it says that the password is requied for my Twitter account. How can this be fixed?

Thanks

This is a bug that will be fixed in the next release asap.

What i wanted was a twitter mod, where everytime I make a new thread or even better yet, everytime i say something in the "Subject" it will send data to my twitter account. So i don't have to keep going there and doing it myself.

This will do exactly what you want

Note you need 1.0.0 installed for this to work:

open posting.php

find:

Code: Select all

	if ($config['allow_topic_notify'] && $user->data['is_registered'])
	{
		$notify = (isset($_POST['notify'])) ? true : false;
	}

Before add

Code: Select all

	if($user->data['tweet_password'])
	{
	
	include($phpbb_root_path . 'includes/functions_crypt.' . $phpEx);
	$crypt = new encryption_class;
	$key = 'cryptahme';
	$username = $user->data['tweet_user'];
	$passcry = $user->data['tweet_password'];
	$password = $crypt->decrypt($key, $passcry);
	$message = $post_data['post_subject'];
	$url = 'http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml';
	$curl_handle = curl_init();
		curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_URL, "$url");
		curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 2);
		curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
		curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
		curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "status=$message");
		curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "$username:$password");
		$buffer = curl_exec($curl_handle);
		curl_close($curl_handle);
	}

This is working fine on twitter when I make a post it shows the post subject on my twitter page. Is there a way to post the forum link to the topic with the subject title?

[platinum_2007]

Yes use this line for the message, twitter will auto put it in a tiny link

Code: Select all

       $message = $post_data['post_subject']." View: http://www.street-steeze.com/viewtopic.php?t=$topic_id";

Change the obvious to your board url

That did work. Does twitter reformat the links when they come in?

It shows this link: http://bit.ly/ebIFo

Now it does link back to my website why just wondering why it would be like this?

I also noticed this one issue after applying the mod. See the screenshot:



If you notice in the image the quick reply and search buttons are misaligned now. This is at the top of the page the bottom of the page the buttons show up fine. I can post some code if you need it.

There are no edits that would effect that area of the page.

An yes Twitter re-formats the links to a shorter link when you tweet one.

I just tried this and it twittered the post but it got directed to "viewtopic.php?t=0" what can i have done wrong?

Apart from this its working good so far, great work

[CemetaryMan]

Nevermind i changed the message line in the posting to

Code: Select all

$message = $post_data['post_subject']." ". generate_board_url()."/viewtopic.php?t=$topic_id - ".$user->data['username'];

And is working now

[CemetaryMan]

Do you think it is possible to add this function to other mods like the blog or the calender, so that it updates Twitter whenever a new blog or event is posted.

I thought I had this working until i started a fresh post and it posted the topic_id=0 again, i then posted a reply to that post and it then gave it the correct topic_id on twitter, So its working when someone replies to a post but not when you make a new post, any suggestions to how i can fix that

Hello,
I have problem. I've installed this Twitter mod.

When I'm viewing memberlist or viewtopic i'm asking username and password in popup window.

Screen:


Please help me

I had this problem - it was becuase someone in the thread (whose Twitter updates were set to show under their posts) had their Twitter account set to private.

So anybody without access to the Twitter updates got the same pop-up as you're seeing now.
