    On sites using the Genesis Twitter Widget plugin, any hashtags in the tweets shown are shown as links, however clicking any of these now returns the following error:

    The Twitter REST API v1 is no longer active. Please migrate to API v1.1.
https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/overview

    This seems to be due to search urls like those generated for hashtags now needing authentication in v1.1 of the API https://dev.twitter.com/docs/using-search

    As a workaround on my sites, I have commented out the $text = preg_replace lines in the gltw_tweet_linkify() function in the plugin’s functions.php as no links are preferable to broken links
