[plugin] [ORPHAN] kml_twitter: Kimili Twitter Timeline

For what it’s worth, I’m using Twitter’s lists feature with nary a blip or interruption— this plugin is doing its thing.

Struggling to work out why my twitter would be different to someone else’s?

My kml_twitter code below:

<txp:kml_twitter user="sams101" count="1" DISPLAYTITLE="false" error="It seems Twitter is working very slowly today.. Click the link below to find my twitter page, follow me if you want!" footer_text="" DISPLAYORDER="tweet" TWEETTEXT_CLASS="ptext" />

Maybe worth signing up for a fresh account, but not sure what would change..

My answer might be stupid, but could it be the UPPERCASE the attributes are in? Just guessing, there.

Otherwise, start building the code with only the necessary attributes (I think just your name; the rest has a default). Then see where it goes wrong. If nothing works, maybe it’s the settings on your server…

sams101 · 2009-11-20 12:04:53

All lower case now. Have tried changing my twitter name to samscotts instead (thought it my by the 101 interfering), still no luck.

edit: Have contacted twitter to see if my account is in anyway different to any other account as any other username i put in the plugin works. My lucky week obviously.

hmm i also get the immediate “Rate limit exceeded. Clients may not make more than 150 requests per hour.” error when i use this plugin (v1.2 with txp 4.2.0). just using the simple tag <txp:kml_twitter user="username" count="1" /> and thats it.

the /textpattern/cache directory is created and is writeable (777).

i see the .cache file in there and changed its permission to 666 as well just in case.

Today, I’ve released a long-overdue update to Kimili Twitter Timeline. Version 1.3 of Kimili Twitter Timeline fixes a number of bugs, implements a number of requested features and gives you even more flexibility to customize the display of your tweets. Changes include:

Added the ability to hide replies.
More flexible HTML customization.
Fixed an issue that occurred when using Textile.
More flexible boolean handling on attribute values (can now be true/false, 1/0 and yes/no).
Fixed a problem with how tweet IDs were being handled on some servers. _(thanks to Christopher Horrell
Replaced deprecated PHP functions.
Improved parsing of URLs in tweet text.

You can download it now at the Kimili Twitter Timeline Homepage

great thanks. i’ve been getting into your plugin more lately and i think it was good even before the update. this is good to see more improvements.

Working perfectly! Thanks!

mrtunes · 2010-01-04 03:35:04

i see there is the conversation order feature, i’m wondering if there is a way to not display tweets that you’ve written which start with @username ?

kimili · 2010-01-04 15:11:35

@mrtunes – In the new version (1.3), I’ve added a show_replies attribute which, when set to false (or 0 or no) will hide replies you’ve made to other people.

@corkingdesign – It sounds like you’ve not got the plugin’s caching set up properly. There’s a few things to check:

The cache_life attribute is set to something higher than 0. (default is 600)
You’ve created a /textpattern/cache/ directory
The /textpattern/cache/ directory permissions should be set to 777 (World writable)

If any of those items are not as I describe, the plugin won’t create a cache file, but will hit Twitter for content on every page view. That’s probably why you’re going over the limit.

Hi kimili,

I to am having the same error display… I have all the settings you suggested / cache_life=“600”, cache directory in textpattern directory, and the cache folder chmod setting is 777. but i still keep getting this errow… Rate limit exceeded. Clients may not make more than 150 requests per hour.

I’ve also tried setting the cache_life between 1 and 800 and still get the error.

Any idea what it might be?

I am running into the Dec 31, 1969 issue. All of my tweets disappear, the timestamp becomes Dec 31, 1969 and just links to twitter.com/status. I am running version 1.3 of the plugin (since day one). I deleted the cache file, set CACHE_LIFE to “1” temporarily, made sure all DB tables were repaired, dumped everything browser-side (just in case), but nothing. I have not actually done anything to the site in the past few days, so I don’t think I broke anything.

Here is the source for the cache file:

O:8:"stdClass":1:{s:6:"errors";a:1:{i:0;O:8:"stdClass":2:{s:4:"code";i:32;s:7:"message";s:27:"Could not authenticate you.";}}}

So I am not sure what’s going on, but no other Twitter clients have any problem with my username.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
