[Plugin: Simple Twitter Connect] Weird characters in tweets

Could anyone help with this one? Haven’t been able to solve this problem. Please.

I have tracked down the problem it appears that wp_parse_args(); is causing this.

Changing a line in the function: oAuthRequest of twitterOAuth.php included in the STC plugin folder helps alleviate this problem.

Find:
$args = wp_parse_args($req->to_postdata());
Change To:
$args = $req->to_postdata();

I was wrong, the above change does not fix the problem. It looks like it is a bit more complex then what I thought.

I’m looking into the oAuth URL encoding, perhaps there is still a way to fix this.

So in the interest of saving time, I have tried out the plugin ‘WP to Twitter’ and it appears to handle symbols in URLs just fine.

Did you try the development version of STC first? That always has the latest fixes.

I still have the problem with development version (0.16)
is there a way to fix that?
thanks
