Twitter Tools 1.6 – Digest (weekly/daily)

ok, so how do you flush the tt settings?

I don’t have phpymadmin access, but I do have a DB plugin that allows me to update, delete and insert stuff.

Hmm. I do not know itjuggler.

As I went through the process I wished that there was a clean remove/uninstall of the plugin. Sure, the files are easy to delete but removing the data from the db was not.

Does anyone else know how to completely uninstall TT without phpmyadmin? It’d be great if the plugin provided that option considering how much it adds to the db.

Additional note – After nearly 24 hours, my older tweets have not imported into the db.

I still want to reenable AIO SEO, but I have not been brave enough. Does anyone have any luck with it?

On a sidenote; When I was deleting the settings for TT did I notice that my twitter password was stored in the clear. That is not good practice! But I guess we will have to live with it intill twitter lets us use API key’s.

sjefen6… I have SEO enabled and everything is working fine (still). My Sunday weekly digest posted this AM.

Success! I reenabeled AIO SEO and still the digests are coming inn! The fix seems to be flushing the settings from aktt and reinstall it. Dont know what wp.com users and other that does not have db access can do.

I am pretty sure I just solved my problem. “akk_doing_digest” is set to “1”, where i suspect the program left it after my %^@# provider killed the process.

wfzimmerman, I think you nailed the problem. Here are two examples from my db backups.

March 13th…
INSERT INTO wp_options VALUES (2442, 0, ‘aktt_doing_digest_post’, ‘0’, ‘yes’);

February 27th…
INSERT INTO wp_options VALUES (1597, 0, ‘aktt_doing_digest_post’, ‘1’, ‘yes’);

I had left the weekly digest enabled hoping that one day it would fix itself. I do see a 0 vs a 1. Would that have solved the problem?

For those out there experiencing troubles with the weekly digest, check this setting and please let us know if this solution fixed the problem.

Thanks wfzimmerman.

I have been using twitter tools since sometime and hav started facing a strange problem.

not only does the plugin skip some of the daily digests on certain random dates, it posts duplicate ones on certain days. I cant figure out what’s wrong. My twitter lifestreaming on my blog is not working :|. any support would be appreciated.

Same problems here – ground to a halt a couple of weeks back and have had no success in getting the daily or weekly digests started again. Have tried flushing the TT stuff from the DB, resetting, reinstalling, disabling other plug-ins etc… to no avail.

@wfzimmerman @garyploski – what you were investigating sounded positive – did you both resolve this problem permanently and, if you did, would you be able to post a clear step-by-step solution for us all here please? Your posts above point to a few different steps, but it’s not quite clear (at least to me) what exactly you did to sort it out.

If possible, much appreciated!

Thanks for your work gary, I will try the new version on my blog.

I only installed this plugin to get the weekly compliation of tweets posted as a blog post.

I can’t get it to work either. I am running WP 2.7 with the following plugins:

AddQuicktag
Akismet
Google Analytics
Google XML Sitemaps
Image Caption
Lightbox 2
MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer
My Link Order
NextGENGallery
Twitter for WordPress
UTF8Sanitize
Widget Logic
Worpress,com stats
Wordpress Database backup
WP Contact Form III
WP Security
YouTube Brackets

I suggest it might just be easier to copy and paste them in manually once a week.

#1 Select, copy paste, post: All up that process would take a minute, perhaps less.

or

#2 Troubleshooting this plugin: I could waste several hours as others have with no promise it will work.

I am having the same problem. The plugin does not publish the digest posts.

I am running WP 2.8 with the following plugins:

Akismet
Broken Link Checker
cforms
Clicky Web Analytics
Flickr Photo Album
Fotobook
HidePost
Maintenance Mode
MTR Podcast Recorder
NextGEN Gallery
OpenID
podPress
Post-Plugin Library

Same problems here, it just stopped all of a sudden to give out the weekly digest. I don’t know if the update of wordpress has anything to do with it. I deinstalled tt and deleted everything from the database. (shouldn’t there be a routine for this in the plugin?) I will reinstall twitter tools again to see what happens. But before that I try to build in the routine to remove the database entries at deinstallation.

A new version has been released since I posted this trouble. There was a resolution to the earlier trouble please read through the posts for details. This is now marked as resolved.
