Sorry i had some trouble with the keys, but now :

( ! ) Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘TwitterException’ with message ‘the following errors were reported by Twitter – Sorry, that page does not exist.; code 34.’ in C:\wamp64\www\twitter\src\ultimate.twitter.feed.php on line 573

( ! ) TwitterException: the following errors were reported by Twitter – Sorry, that page does not exist.; code 34. in C:\wamp64\www\twitter\src\ultimate.twitter.feed.php on line 573

Hi Lyre!

Sorry for the late response.

According to Twitter’s documentation (found here) code 34 means that the specified account or list doesn’t exist. Can you make sure that you entered the username correctly in the options?

Hi nicshar,

You sure can! You can set the option format_link to change how links are formatted in the output.

The default value is

<a href="{link:expanded_url}" class="link-tweet">{link:url}</a>

Something like this should suffice

<a target="_blank" href="{link:expanded_url}" class="link-tweet">{link:url}</a>

Here’s the list of all options available

It seems working but still needs more time to observe. And where is the option curl_ssl_verifypeer? I can’t find it in the config file.

The option curl_ssl_verifypeer is not documented. It’s simply forwarded as an option to how requests are made with CURL to the API endpoint.

My site catches another error related to this software. I’ve sent the log to your email address. Please check.

Hi there!

If you make changes to the count option, you must delete the cached tweets before the updated results will be displayed, otherwise they won’t be displayed until the cache is out of date (based on the cache_life. This is because the tweets cached are respecting the options you used when they were cached.

Hi there,

This class wasn’t designed to query for this type of information.

One possible solution, rather than checking specifically if the user is valid, is to check for errors in general. If there is an error you can assume something went wrong with the request (i.e. the user isn’t valid). Display “unable to process request”, rather than “the user is invalid”.

The code required is a try/catch block.

try {
    // do setup, etc. ...

    $twitter->PrintFeed( );
} catch(TwitterException $e) {
    // there was an error. Nothing will be printed if the exception occurs.
}

Hi adequay,

Can you verify that you have the correct consumer key, consumer secret, user token and user secret entered as options for the class? This error suggests that you may have entered them incorrectly.

You can find information about getting these values here.

Hello, yes I entered the correct values and also set the twitter app access to “Read, Write and Access direct messages”

Can you show me how you’re setting up and using the class? Make sure you omit the private keys for your security.

Have you tried it? There shouldn’t be any issues with formatting for multiple screen names.

yes worked. thanks. last question from my side Is it possible to ecxlude retweets?

Yes, you can set the option include_rts to false.

You can find the list of built in options here, and you can find documentation on the options provided by Twitter for the default request type here under Parameters.

Hi there,

Can you elaborate a little bit more about what you mean?

Hi Lakehache,

I would like to preface this by saying it wasn’t my intentions to put you down or challenge your intellectual capacity.

I’m just taken back by how thoroughly upset you are about the way I described the installation steps.

This is a single file, single class script, not a large suite of software like the ones you described. I’m selling the functionality in this class, and that’s it.

Because of this, technically there are no “installation” instructions, you simply use the class in any context that you would like. The current instructions exist as a guide to deal with the files included in the zip. Any further, and I would quite literally be describing the semantics of PHP.

Describing the semantics of php??? why can’t you just name the files that we’re supposed to edit like everyone else does? please grab ANY php script at sites like hotscripts.com (most of them are free) and take a look at the instructions. They ALL give you basic instructions on which files to edit. ALL without exception.

I asked some very simple questions:

1: In this zip, you should have the folder src/. This includes the Twitter class as well as other files needed in order for this script to work. Copy that folder relative to your php file.

Which php file? do you mean index.php? because I have many php files in the directory where I will be installing this script. In this zip, you should have the folder src/. This includes the Twitter class as well as other files needed in order for this script to work. Copy that folder relative to your php file. Finally,

2: include the class.

Include it where?? a class could go anywhere. On the index file, on one of the many css files, where??

3: Next, we’re going to construct a new instance of the Twitter class. The example below shows the options required to be passed into the constructor function. You can find where to get your keys in the first step.

Which file are we supposed to include the class in??

4: print a feed ????

WHICH FILES ARE WE SUPPOSED TO EDIT??

Again, this is a class, not a file that you just edit.

The steps are describing what you would do to an existing file that you’ve already created.

With all the steps together, here’s what your file might look like.

<?php

require_once 'src/ultimate.twitter.feed.php';

$options = array(
    'screen_name' => 'MyScreename',
    'consumer_key'  => 'CONSUMER KEY',
    'consumer_secret' => 'CONSUMER SECRET',
    'user_token' => 'ACCESS TOKEN',
    'user_secret' => 'ACCESS TOKEN SECRET',
);

$twitter = new Twitter( $options );

$twitter->PrintFeed( );

?>

Hi Lakehache,

This means that when sending a request to Twitter’s API, you must use the HTTPS protocol instead of HTTP.

This doesn’t actually require any action/extra steps from those using this script, as it handles all of that in the backend (aka, you don’t need a certificate).

The file src/cacert.pem simply contains a list of trusted root certification authorities, so that when making an HTTPS request, libraries used in this script can verify that the responses are from who they say they are.

Hello,

This seems to be a peculiar issue with your hosting environment, as this script doesn’t do anything special with file/folder creation.

I suggest looking at this StackOverflow post for possible solutions.

I now only get this warning message :

Warning: file_put_contents(cache/1.1-statuses-user_timeline.cache): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /Users/Barry/Sites/wiganwarriors/src/ultimate.twitter.feed.php on line 661

Hi there,

You can change the count option to the value you’re interested in.

Note that the maximum number of tweets you can request at one time is 200. You can find more information about that option on Twitter’s Docs.

Hi Snowman,

Delete your cache folder and try again. If this doesn’t work, email me the code you’re using to setup the class.

Hey,

thanks for your reply. I did that (deleting cache folder), changed PHP version and also tried it on a different webserver. Since it’s the first time for me, working with twitter, I would really appreciate your help. I am going to send you an email.

Thanks in advance, best regards

Hi mako,

There is an option format_media which targets media entities in a tweet. Setting this option to an empty string like you were trying with format_link should accomplish your goal.

The documentation lists the other available options, including other specific format specifiers.

Awesome, thanks for the quick response.

It works out of the box! Great Software! I can display tweet by <?php $twitter->PrintFeed(); ?> but how do I display my tweet name and link?

What do you mean by name and link?

Hello Austin, you can see my tweet area on the footer area: http://2vpn.co/ I place <?php $twitter->PrintFeed(); ?> to display tweet but this code pushes my Tweeter screen name (manually inserted) to the end of that line. So I hope your software can display my Tweeter screen name automatically before the tweets. It will look better. Is it possible?

The original code is: 2VPNCo<?php $twitter->PrintFeed(); ?>

Are any error logs generated by PHP, or are there any errors in the JavaScript console?

dvLden,

I deeply appreciate your kind words and am glad this script worked out for you.

I plan on publishing more potentially useful things for CodeCanyon in the future, but I’ve been really busy with other things. Hopefully I can get around to it soon!

Hi metro1,

Does this behavior occur every time the script is run? I suggest making sure that your API keys are correct.
