Re: TXP Tweet: arc_twitter and arc_twitter_intents
On the subject of retweets, the attribute description was missing from the documentation. It has been added to the latest version, along with the missing timeline attribute documentation. So much was added to version 2 seems like I forgot what had been added.

Re: TXP Tweet: arc_twitter and arc_twitter_intents
Hi Andy,
The retweet attribute did have me confused as I couldn’t find it in the documentation. Thanks for a great plug-in and all your help.

It is in the works. The dev version of the plugin currently has a <txp:arc_twitter_follow /> tag for the User follow intent widget. I haven’t fully made my mind up on how best to handle the reply/retweet/favourite intents, partly because arc_twitter already has an <txp:arc_twitter_retweet /> tag that’s not quite the same as the intent version. I can’t decide whether to incorporate the retweet intent into the existing tag with an extra attribute and then have <txp:arc_twitter_reply /> and <txp:arc_twitter_favorite /> tags; or go with a more universal <txp:arc_twitter_intent /> tag. The latter is the most likely direction, but I don’t like the idea of the potential confusion over retweeting.
Most of the hard work is done, so if anyone wants to indicate a preference over the tag choices I’ll push ahead with getting them in and the next release of the plugin out.

Re: TXP Tweet: arc_twitter and arc_twitter_intents
Actually looking at the code and API perhaps the best route will be to merge the intent retweet and tweet button functionality into one awesome <txp:arc_twitter_retweet /> tag with a “type” attribute that’s either “button” (default for backwards compatibility) or “retweet” (for intent version).

Sounds good to me! Awesome plugin by the way!

Re: TXP Tweet: arc_twitter and arc_twitter_intents
I have a question. The front page of this thread says the current version is 2.0 beta, but in my plugins list it says I have version 2.01. Do I have the current version? I’m confused. (Today I’m updating plugins since I’ve kind of neglected keeping them up to date)

The current version is 2.01beta. I’ve corrected the details at the start of the thread. Version 3 is very nearly ready for release. I just need to do a bit more testing and then it should be ready for release. There are quite a few new features and improvements in v3 including a load of new tags.

Re: TXP Tweet: arc_twitter and arc_twitter_intents
Can arc_twitter run on PHP version: 4.4.9? I have it working well on a newer site of mine, but wanted to load it on an older site that is running TXP 4.2.
Thanks.

Afraid not. The plugin uses a number of methods only available in PHP 5+. Is your older site on a different server to the one you are running arc_twitter on? PHP 5 is relatively common on servers now (as far as I am aware).

Re: TXP Tweet: arc_twitter and arc_twitter_intents
Hi, no matter what plugin version I seem to use (also tried 3.0-dev fresh from the github) I cannot go to the plug-in settings and connect my Twitter account. It says No input file specified. since it calls the site by appending “textpattern/” instead of using the actual site name (I believe this was brought up earlier already). So in fact arc_twitter needs to be manually tricked into working with a multi-site installation of 4.4.1.
Any chance to get this fixed in the next arc_twitter release?

This should be sorted before v3 is released officially. The code changes are in place, but not yet up on Github. The next version should be out really soon I hope, just need to do a bit more testing first as there are a lot of new things in this release.
