Hello, I think I did exactly what is in the documentation, but I still get "Error 32: Could not authenticate you".
Any idea why this is happening? Thank you.

I'm trying the widget on my local site but I can't make it work.....what do I need to write on the "query" field?

I couldn't find it explained on the Documentation. :?: :?:

I get this error:

Code: Select all
Fatal error: Cannot use object of type WP_Error as array in C:\wamp\www\wordpress\wp-content\themes\Publisher\gavern\classes\class.gkoauth.php on line 227

Please make sure that cURL extension is enabled on your localhost configuration. In query you can write username or from:Username to show your tweets. Of course firstly your tweets should be visible here >> https://twitter.com/search-home where you can test your queries.

cURL looks to be active, but it's not working.

Please check the keys again. You are using theme on localhost or on some server? If this is localhost installation maybe your firewall or something blocks the connection.

Hi,

@fjavimarti I'll add an option to change widget title in the nearest theme update, for now you can change this title directly in gavern/widgets.tweets.php file (around line 49)
Code: Select all
__( 'GK Tweets', GKTPLNAME )

Hi again!

One more question regarding GK Tweets: how can I make the links of the tweets open on a blank page? When I click in both my user name or the links contained on the tweet it opens in the same page the page is loaded.

I guess I need to put
Code: Select all
target="_blank"
somewhere but I don't know where.

Hi,

In the widgets.tweets.php file replace this fragment:

Code: Select all
echo '<span class="gk-tweet-name"><a href="'.$userURL.'">'.$user.'</a><small>'.$username.'</small></span>' . "\n";


with
Code: Select all
echo '<span class="gk-tweet-name"><a href="'.$userURL.'" target="_blank">'.$user.'</a><small>'.$username.'</small></span>' . "\n";


around line 140 and do the same with the links (lines 152-154).

Houston we have a problem.....

When I start change the first line (104). That is:

Code: Select all
$text = str_replace($m, "<a href='https://twitter.com/#!/search/".$m."'>".$m."</a>", $text);                        


for:

Code: Select all
$text = str_replace($m, "<a href='https://twitter.com/#!/search/".$m."' target="_blank">".$m."</a>", $text);


The site crashes! :?: :?:

use single quotes
Code: Select all
target='blank'
or send me a PM with FTP access and your website URL, then I'll check it exactly.
