Default Message/No Tweets?

That would work.

Any thoughts on what you’d like the message to be? It’s an easy fix to add a different message for this scenario.

From my brief file searching, I wasn’t able to find the message in your files.

Something like…

if account.messages = 0
then return ‘no tweets found’ or ” (nothing at all)

The current message suggests a technical issue to me.

It’s really just for our situation, where we use the plugin as a way to have an quick announcement for the website.

Great plugin, thanks Martin!

Are you using a shortcode or the widget?

If you’re using a shortcode, then the development version will accept msg_no_tweets as a variable where you can set a message.

Either way, the default message for no tweets has been set to ‘No Tweets found’.

Did this work for you?

Thank you for that and following up with me. Very interesting. I tested it out. With 0 tweets, I get that “Problem retrieving data from Twitter” message. So I test-tweeted (tweet count:1), and actually, the tweet showed up, so it’s not a configuration issue. Though I deleted the tweet and even with the 2 minute cache it’s still there 20 minutes later.

Here’s my shortcode

[rotatingtweets screen_name=’waialuafcu’ official_format_override=0 links_in_new_window=1 show_meta_screen_name=0 rtw_display_order=’meta,info,main,media’ rotation_type=’fade’ speed=3000 show_meta_via=0 show_meta_prev_next=0 show_meta_pager=1 show_meta_pager_blob=’■’ msg_no_tweets]
