Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] kml_twitter: Kimili Twitter Timeline
Same problem here. Could it be a change in the way Twitter is handling authentication? I’ve used this plugin for at least a year and I’ve never seen this until today. I’m sure it was working yesterday.

OK, so that error went away, and now I am getting this:
There was a problem retrieving data from Twitter.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] kml_twitter: Kimili Twitter Timeline
Hey everyone – it looks like Twitter is indeed changing its authentication scheme to use oAuth exclusively. This isn’t supposed to happen until June 30th, but it looks as if they’ve made changes already which break this plugin. At the moment, it isn’t working for anybody.
I’m looking into a fix and hope to publish it soon. I’ll post back here when I have the update ready.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] kml_twitter: Kimili Twitter Timeline
Well, it turns out that the fix was simpler and faster to implement than I had thought. You can install Kimili Twitter Timeline v. 1.4 and it should fix the issue for you. There are no changes to the plugin other than how it accesses your Twitter data, so this version is a drop-in replacement for KTT 1.3.
Note that you may have to delete your cache file once or twice before it starts working again (or just wait for it to expire), but you should be in good shape after that.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] kml_twitter: Kimili Twitter Timeline
kimili- great plugin, thank you
is there a way to filter tweets? so as to only display tweets that include a particular string (e.g. “#lg2010” or “^AB”) … ?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] kml_twitter: Kimili Twitter Timeline
@nardo – no, there’s no way to do that built into the plugin right now. Out of curiosity, what tweets would you want to filter that way? Your timeline, the public timeline, or something else?
