Error message for Revive Old Posts – status”:417

Hi there @valkirias,

Thank you for selecting Revive Old Post, and I’m sorry to hear about the challenges you’ve encountered.

To address the issue, kindly add the following filter in the active theme’s functions.php file, placing it at the end of the file. This will display the “Use your own keys” settings:

add_filter( 'option_rop_first_install_version', '__return_false' );

Twitter Developer

1. Login to?https://developer.twitter.com?with the Twitter account you’d like to use.
2. Create an App.
3. Add user authentication settings: “read & write”, “web app”
4. App info (make sure to change these to use your own domain!): Callback/Redirect URL:?https://example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=TweetOldPost; Website URL:?https://example.com
5. Make sure to copy both your keys.

Revive Old Posts plugin

1. Delete accounts from Revive Old Posts in WordPress.
2. Choose to create/add a new account via the “Twitter” button.

5. The login should proceed, and everything will be activated.

Let us know how it goes and if there’s anything else we can assist you with.

Best regards,

Hi @valkirias,

I wanted to follow-up here and ask if you were able to solve the issue?
Also, a small update about the reply above that the custom code is no longer needed as with the recent update of the plugin we made an option to add your own API keys by default.

Since you’re facing 417 error from my experience, this could be a result of incorrectly configured account settings in X network, please take additional looks at the steps provided here:

And especially on Step 8 which sets the App permissions.

Let us know if you’re still experiencing this issue. Thanks!

Hi guys! Thanks for the help! ??
