[twitter-dev] Tweet button showing 0 count
Cheers all. I wrote a Twitter app back in 2009 called Foller.me (http://www.foller.me) which has now moved to Google App Engine. The latest changes to the app included a Tweet button with the count for each profile. I simply copied and pasted the code Twitter gave me, but it doesn't seem to work, tweeting goes alright, but the count is always 0. I went forward by clicking the count to see that it's performing a Twitter search using the current URL that was tweeted, and yeah, there were no results. The tweeted link automatically gets shortened using Twitter's shortening service t.co, and the tweets do not show up. Could anybody help me investigate this?

[twitter-dev] Re: Problems with @Anywhere Tweet Box and jQuery
I came across this a few days ago. The problem here I believe, is that there's some calculation going on in javascript based on the block you're displaying it in, which in your case is not visible at all, thus the iframe is being tagged with a 0x0 width and height. There are two ways to solve it: 1. Fire the .tweetBox() function only AFTER the div is displayed, i.e. as soon as the fadein/slidein or whatever animation is complete 2. Overriding CSS styles with the !important tag, here's a copy from my code: #tbox iframe.twitter-anywhere-tweet-box { width: 488px !important; height: 140px !important; } Where #tbox is the element I run tweetBox() on. Cheers.

[twitter-dev] Re: Retweet Anywhere for WordPress
Abraham, that's nice, though there may be one drawback when shortening the links. A call to bit.ly or other URL shorteners could take some time, thus slowing down your page if you do it server-side. Of course you could cache it or do it via javascript with a PHP tunnel (AJAX) but what's the point of shortening the link if there's a very little chance that people will actually tweet it. On the other hand, if you shorten only when somebody pressed "Retweet" then there's a greater chance of them actually tweeting, so it's worthed ;) Anywyas, if you're using a preset shortened link then it's good, and I like the way it looks ;) bravo! Ed, it is easy with a few tricks, check out this one http://kovshenin.com/archives/setup-twitter-anywhere-for-wordpress-in-seconds/ called Setup Twitter @Anywhere for WordPress in Seconds. Anyways, the value of this plugin I'm thinking of is not actually the "embedding @Anywhere" part, but having the facebox style popup with a preset status and a shortened link to the post.

[twitter-dev] Retweet Anywhere for WordPress
Hey all. I've been working on this little plugin for WordPress that's supposed to kind of act like Tweetmeme, but a little bit more branded and doesn't actually show the number of retweets, maybe that's a drawback, but hey, I wouldn't like to show 0 retweets ;) Anyway, the snippet works with jQuery and Facebox, you can see it in action on http://kovshenin.com in each blog post. I used the original @Anywhere "Follow @.." button but wrote Retweet (is that against the law?). I was just wondering what your thoughts are. Is this useful or is this yet another crappy parody on tweetmeme? I haven't released the plugin public yet, but you'll be able to tweak the url shortener, tweet format, etc. Any feedback is appreciated.

[twitter-dev] Anywhere tweetbox() onComplete?
Hey, I'm firing the tweetbox() function and everything seems great. The only thing I'd like to do is set focus to the tweet box as soon as it loads and it seems to work fine with a few jQuery tricks, but unfortunatelly requires to use the setTimeout function to focus when the elements are there. The frame .ready state doesn't show anything, because it seems that the tweetbox is being built via javascript. Anyways, I thought there's some onComplete function which I can hook to when the elements are actually shown in the frame? Thanks. -- Subscription settings: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/subscribe?hl=en

[twitter-dev] Account Suspension, Retweet Limitations
Hey everyone, I've recently setup a new account and made it retweet some messages based on hashtags every few seconds. I'm using the new retweets API and I couldn't get passed ~ 35 tweets when Twitter has blocked my account. There was no spam, pornography or any other violation. Anybody know if there are any limits to this? I did this twice on two different accounts, both of them blocked. Filed an issue to Twitter Support, still waiting. I'm pretty sure I'm not hitting the API limits. Thank you, Konstantin

[twitter-dev] Twitter API: I keep hitting 502 status codes on /statuses/user_timeline
Hey there. Everything was working fine until I got hit by loads of traffic from a post on Mashable. I started to get way too much 502 errors for the / statuses/user_timeline method. The API docs say 502 means "Twitter is down" but Twitter is fine and this has been going on for three days now. I have a developer account with 20,000 signed API calls, I output in a debug log the current limit status plus the error code received. I haven't gone lower than 16,000 calls left with 502 errors all around. When applying for a dev account at Twitter I didn't mention my IP address so I thought it was the problem, but since the API calls are signed I don't think so. I double checked with a simple unsigned cURL call from the server, and get the following response for my IP address: 149/150 and it hasn't got any lower than that. Anybody had similar problems? Thank you, ~ @kovshenin
[twitter-dev] I'd like to get on the Developer for Hire page
I believe I have to request this, cause requesting a develoeprs account with the raised limits and whitelisted IP didn't get me into that list. I'm a Twitter developer and I'd like to be listed there together with my recent Twitter app called Foller.me (http:// foller.me) Thank you.
[twitter-dev] Getting multiple user profiles in one call
Hi. I'm using the http://twitter.com/friends/ids/ REST call to get 5000 twitter ids of friends, now I'd like to know their locations, preferably in one API call. Is that possible? Couldn't find a function that would accept multiple twitter ids and return profiles. Did I miss anything? Thanks.
