"Could not recognize the response from Twitter"

Hey, I’ve solved the problem with the help of this step by step-instruction:

https://www.itworld.com/consumerization-it/347294/step-step-photo-guide-setting-twitter-widget-pro-wordpress

For some reason I got space (blank) at the start of my consumer key and consumer secret when copying & pasting them into my WordPress screen. Don’t know, but maybe you should have a look there, too.

oh, I see I used the same site as benspy did… ??

Yes !!! got it…

Ok … this is what I did:

1- Enabling the “php_curl” in WAMP resolve the message : “There are no HTTP transports available which can complete the requested request.”

2- “reset” the information (various times) on the “dev.twitter.com” the problem with the “You need to authorize Twitter Accounts” disappear (the blue button will work). Remember to update information and press the “Activate Account” on each attempt to “reset”.

3- At this point the account was succesfully activated (yayyyy !!) but widget didn’t show on left footer ??

4- I then go to “widgets” in the wordpress admin area and found that the previous “widgets” shown up instead of the Twitter (don’t know why). I then proceed and remove all “inactive” widgets and voilá !!! the Twitter Widget Pro appears on the left footer.

?? hope this info helps someone.

I had this same problem and as Aaron says it was related to the callback URL. I was using domain mapping in a multi-site setup and the solution was to use the https://blogs.domain.com/blogname address rather than the mapped domain name https://www.blogname.com.
Hope this helps someone else.

This had me super confused. I’ve tried installing this plugin multiple times and always failed – until reading this forum topic. I think it would be a good idea to provide a more comprehensive guide for us n00bs who can’t figure out the Twitter application sign up process.

It seems that this problem still exists. Thankfully, this time around I knew where this forum topic was to help solve the problem ??
