LG Twitter 2.0 - Send Tweets from your ExpressionEngine control panel
Hey Guys,
Another day another extension… trying to get them all in before 2.0 😊
This is another simple extension that does one thing… in this case update your Twitter.com status from text in a custom field.
So heres the use case…
Create a new weblog with new custom fields as normal. Add a new field and call it Twitter Update or something else… just remember the custom field id Update the extension configuration and add the custom field
Now every time you create a new weblog entry from that weblog and fill in the Twitter Update custom field LG twitter will update your status on twitter.com
Easy…
Check out LG Twitter - Update your Twitter Status from Expressionengine on my site.
Its a first draft but it is bug free as far as I can test. Oh did I mention this one was free?
Cheers Leevi
You are ridiculous - now you can read minds. I have been avoiding Twitter like that plague, for no particular reason other than to be antisocial, I suppose…until yesterday. Being here at SXSW I feel like if I’m not Twittering, I’m useless. 😊 I’ve just (and I mean just today) installed Twitbin for FF and Twitterific, enabled SMS notification and set a Twitter shortcut on the homepage of my iPhone. Then I come to the forums, type “twitter” into the search field, and see that you’ve written a plugin. Coincidence?
UPDATE: Because I’ve just started using Twitter, and I have no twits (which should be the term used for “friends”), allow me to pimp myself: code name “masuga”
I figured the twitter plugin would be useful for getting some incoming links to new entries and basically allowing me to inform people of new updates to my extensions.
Have fun with it…
You can use it in one of two ways… create a twitter blog or add a custom field to an existing blog.
Cheers Leevi

I hope you mean v 1.0.2 😊
I ran validation on the local file on my machine and the php file seems ok. As a result I replaced the zip on my site with the one on my local site. Try downloading it again.
Cheers

LG,
Downloaded again from your site: Same error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in .../extensions/ext.lg_twitter.php on line 634
And … for some reason upon download my computer adds a digit before the download name. : / That’s why it was off.
Thanks for your help.
OK silenz has a solution for the php4 issue OVER HERE..
I’ll add it to the next release.
I know this may complicate things a bit, but its something I’ve noticed. I constantly make blog posts and post date them modifying the time and date of each entry so I don’t have to be in front of a computer all the time. As an example I’ll spend a few hours monday night making posts for the entire week. Well LG Twitter ignores that and just twits it right away. The result is a bunch of twits to links of posts that aren’t there yet (sometimes up to a week). Thankfully someone on my twitter site feed pointed it out. Any ideas?
