Sidebar tweets stopped working 3 weeks ago

I have the same problem, no new tweets have appeared for 3 weeks. I’m using the widget though, with version 2.4 of the plugin.

I’ve tried clearing my caches and pressing the two buttons to update and reset tweet checking, to no avail.

If anyone else finds a solution to this, I’d be most grateful; if I find one, I’ll post it here.

Thanks,

Version 2.4 won’t work anymore, Twitter changed their API.

I fixed this by replacing the following lines in twitter-tools.php :

define('AKTT_API_POST_STATUS', 'https://twitter.com/statuses/update.json');
define('AKTT_API_USER_TIMELINE', 'https://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline.json');
define('AKTT_API_STATUS_SHOW', 'https://twitter.com/statuses/show/###ID###.json');
define('AKTT_PROFILE_URL', 'https://twitter.com/###USERNAME###');
define('AKTT_STATUS_URL', 'https://twitter.com/###USERNAME###/statuses/###STATUS###');
define('AKTT_HASHTAG_URL', 'https://search.twitter.com/search?q=###HASHTAG###');

by this :

define('AKTT_API_POST_STATUS', 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/update.json');
define('AKTT_API_USER_TIMELINE', 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json');
define('AKTT_API_STATUS_SHOW', 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/show.json?id=###ID###');
define('AKTT_PROFILE_URL', 'https://twitter.com/###USERNAME###');
define('AKTT_STATUS_URL', 'https://twitter.com/###USERNAME###/statuses/###STATUS###');
define('AKTT_HASHTAG_URL', 'https://search.twitter.com/search?q=###HASHTAG###');

Due to the announced changes in the 1.1 API that’s not going to be a long-term fix.

Thanks pod75, that fixed it for now, until I have the time to update to version 3 and cope with all its changes.

Am I missing something here? The code above can not be found in the twitter-tools.php file, it’s the latest version. ????

Vakantie, the code that pod75 quoted was found in Twitter Tools version 2.4, not the latest version.

Came here looking for this info. Implemented it, bing bam boom. Works like a charm. Thanks to pod75 for the hook-up.
