Feed not updating

Do you have to use an alternative cron?

No, not that I’m aware of.

I decided to try to see if my modifications have any impact on the widget’s ability to update. So, I put a completely clean copy of the widget here (https://keepseniorssafe.com/test). As you can see (https://twitter.com/60PlusAssoc), it hasn’t updated since I put it there.

So, now we know it is not my code modifications. This stuff is running on a Windows server (if that info helps).

Try using the new version and authenticating your account. That should raise your rate limit. I know your limit doesn’t say it’s used up, but maybe there’s something weird about Twitter and your IP address.

Okay — have successfully updated to latest version (2.5.3) and successfully authenticated. Update locks are clear. Still not updating since I did the version update.

See: https://twitter.com/60PlusAssoc and note the most recent post there is not showing up at https://keepseniorssafe.com/test.

Please advise. Thanks!

Hi, same problem here. Feed hasn’t updated – one new tweet from 2 days ago doesn’t show up but previous tweets still displaying.

Account is authenticated. Lists rate Usage and Statuses Rate Usage both show as:
Used: 0
Remaining: 180
Limits reset in: 16 minutes

Tried “Clear Update Locks” but response message says there were no locks to clear.

Any ideas?

The problem seems to have resolved itself.

I think it must have been either a caching issue or Twitter has tweaked something that fixed it.

I’m still having the problem, which can be confirmed by checking the links I listed previously.

I have the widget set up here, latest version, set up and authorised app. [ link redacted ]
All seems successful but it refuses to update.

No locks to clear it says but no updates since I installed the App Auth version. Any ideas?

Thanks
Rob

Rob_Che, have you resolved the problem yet? I’ve got the same issue. Research suggests it might be something to do with a php callback. Is the site hosted with Heart Internet by any chance?

This is also happening on holyblossom.org. I just updated the plugin, and none of the tweets posted since then are showing up.

See the homepage of holyblossom.org and its twitter page (https://twitter.com/holyblossom)

Help!

Having the same issue as well. I recently installed the plugin, and only the first tweets that initially loaded are showing up. Hasn’t updated since. I cleared the locks with no luck.

Ended up ditching this plugin for TwitGet

Alot more flexible, and no updating issues.

Yeah, I opted for a different plugin too. Heart Internet advised me that the issue with Twitter Widget Pro is that it uses a callback which *could* present an infinite loop problem.

Thanks HarryAdney, I’m with Heart too and thought it might be that the server was blocking a bounce between the services.
