jQuery Twitter widget deprecated/broken

Closed this issue · 5 comments

Hey,

the jQuery twitter widget you're using does not work anymore since 2013-06-11 (http://tweet.seaofclouds.com/) due to some twitter api changes. I don't know how you want to fix the issue (application only auth or server side code). If you made up your and you need someone to implement the solution just let me know.

Hey,

feeling super bad for not noticing it through. The only idea of this page is not to have any server side code. Hopefully all generated by gh pages. So I have no preferred solution in mind. If you have any cool idea how to fix it, please propose or send a PR. I just want to mention that we should not spin up a 2nd service anywhere. This would made this simple page too complicated and would higher the barricade of contribution.

Just quickly googled a bit around. And stumbeled upon this: https://dev.twitter.com/docs/twitter-for-websites maybe we can cheat sme thing with the embedded tweet stuff. You could also ask the folks from the berlinug how they solved it: http://www.bephpug.de/

Thanks for your help, really appreciating it!

cool, will do that. Do you have somewhere the original layout of the twitter feed, so I know how it is supposed to look like?

Well, nope. We didn't had any design for this. So I designed it myself, so just feel free to create your own 'backend developer' design.

ok, it's done. The only thing I need from you guys now is that someone creates a widget (because I do not really want to connected to my account). Go to https://twitter.com/settings/widgets then create a new widget with the @phpughh username. Then simply post me the data id and you will have your pull request.

Well, I have no clue about how to configure it. I just clicked one with the default settings:

<a class="twitter-timeline" href="https://twitter.com/PHPUGHH" data-widget-id="386209946448044033">Tweets von @PHPUGHH</a>
<script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+"://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs");</script>

If you have any preferences how to configure it, just let me know!
