As mentioned a couple of days ago I’ve been working on an update to Twitt-Twoo. Its nothing ground-breaking, but hopefully some of the changes that I’ve made will make it a little more ‘friendly’ to use.
First up there have been a few changes to the code, mainly to incorporate some of the recent changes to the Twitter API, including the deprecation of ‘relative_created_at’ from the feeds. To overcome this I’ve used a modified combination of a couplef of the scripts posted in the Twitter fan wiki. There wasn’t a php version listed, so I adapted the javascript one. Works nicely.
The other big change is the addition of “caching”. Its not like Alex King’s Twitter Tools, in that it doesn’t store a record for all your tweets, all I’m doing it simply storing the latest tweet and its time in the wp options table. For more details about this have a read of my previous post.
The last lot of changes were to remove the need for you to manually enter your twitter id number, and the url for your twitter profile image. Both are now sucked out of the feed the first time that you update. I have also incorporated a request to add and option to allow you to turn your Twitter image on or off.
As always, if you have any troubles, or if you’ve got any suggestions then just leave a comment here, or swing by the support forum and leave a message there.
