So, the past several times I’ve used STC to auto-publish to Twitter, it turns apostrophes & #8217 ; and other characters into their numeric equivalents. No bueno; I have to delete the tweet and then re-do it, or let it go on looking kind of dumb.

I have this same issue with not being able to activate any of the modules and just seeing the main settings (ie..Twitter Consumer Key, Twitter Consumer Secret, Twitter Default Button).

In my case the twitter status box on the right side seems to be working OK.

Has anyone managed to resolve this yet?

Hi. I’ve installed and enabled the “Twitter Follow” button on my site (Twenty Eleven theme) and dragged and dropped it over to the sidebar. I put a basic “Follow on Twitter” in the title box and my Twitter handle in the username box. But when I visit my site, there is no button. Just grey text that says “Follow on Twitter.” How do I get the lovely dark blue “Follow on Twitter” box with the twitter log that you have on your sidebar on this page? Thanks.

We are also experiencing this problem with HTML codes showing up in tweets and Facebook posts. Has anyone heard of a solution?

These instructions resolved the same problem the above users had. No more redirect message.
Great plugins! Thank you so much

I have done all the setting on the STC plugin and created the app through Twitter, set up the callback url but it will go through say it is authorized and then just go to a blank page http://www.saywharadio.com/?oauth_token=blahblahlbhalbha. This doesn’t allow me to post to my Twitter. Can anyone help?

Hello there Otto. I just started a music blog using wordpress, and downloaded your plugin to connect it with twitter. I cannot figure out how to place the “follow” button on my page. I have it activated, I just have no idea what to do now. Im assuming its a .php code i have to place somewhere.

can you help?

thanks for your time!

How can I put the Login to twitter box anywhere I want? I’ve been searching for this answer for an hour now, not very impressed with documentation!

Hey Otto,

I’m trying to get the STC – Publish plugin working. For the Base, I entered the Twitter Consumer Key and Twitter Consumer Secret, I’m currently logged in as SimballBeta, and Autotweet is set to Twitter User SimballBeta. Automatically Tweet is checked. At Twitter the OAuth and Access Token settings are both set to Read and Write. New posts don’t get Tweeted and Tweet This doesn’t work either. When I try Tweet This the little loading icon just spins. I’m not seeing any errors anywhere, it just doesn’t work.

Also, is there a way to Autotweet new bbPress topics?

Thanks in advance!
DJ
