anyone have any ideas or alternatives. greatly apprectiated, thanks
Code:
[B]Connect to Twitter[/B]
In order to get started, we need to follow some steps to get this site registered with Twitter. This process is awkward and more complicated than it should be. We hope to have a better solution for this in a future release, but for now this system is what Twitter supports. If you have any trouble, please use the Support button above to contact WordPress HelpCenter and provide code 14303.
1. Register this site as an application on Twitter's app registration page
If you're not logged in, you can use your Twitter username and password
Your Application's Name will be what shows up after "via" in your twitter stream
Application Type should be set on Browser
The Callback URL should be http://mywebsite.com
Default Access type should be set to Read & Write (this is NOT the default)
Once you have registered your site as an application, you will be provided with a consumer key and a comsumer secret.
2. Copy and paste your consumer key and consumer secret into the fields below
Twitter Consumer Key xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Twitter Consumer Secret xxxxxxxxxxxxx
3. Copy and paste your Access Token and Access Token Secret into the fields below
On the right hand side of your application page, click on 'My Access Token'.
Access Token xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Access Token Secret xxxxxxxxxxxxxanyone have any ideas or alternatives. greatly apprectiated, thanks
