Hi Friends,

This is the official support thread for my 1st mod release i.e. "Dolphin 2 Twitter" Mod.

URL - http://www.boonex.com/unity/extensions/entry/Ultimate_Dolphin_2_Twitter_Mod_using_OAuth

Post all your support questions here and I will try to respond to them ASAP.

Thanks

Armaan

Here are answers to some questions asked by one fellow member -

- I just want to confirm that each member can have their twitter account attached to their account at our sites?

Answer: Yes, that's 100% correct. Each member would be able to configure their twitter accounts through their profiles.

- Is the installation like a regular module installation, or does it need other installations as well?

Answer: Yes, installation is like any other regular module and does not need any other installations.

Thank You

Armaan

Mod upgraded - OAuth implementation has been included. All authentication is done through OAuth now ... enjoy !!!!

Here are some more answers to queries asked by valued customers -

Q: How can user stop Dolphin accessing user data? Can a user delete his Twitter credentials?

Answer: As in any other OAuth implementation, the user can always do 'revoke access' to the application from his Twitter account. We did not see any usecase where the user would like to delete his twitter account. So in this version to delete the Twitter credentials, the user has to request the site admin who has to manually delete the user entry from md_twit_data table. If we get more requests,we will implement this feature in the next release.

Q: How to turn off followers, following etc.

Answer: This feature would be added in the next release as well (All buyers of this Mod would get free upgrade). If you would like to disable any such functionality in this (v1.0) release, then please do the following:

Open <Your site path>/modules/mods4dolphin/twitter/classes/MdTwitModule.php and comment out the 3 lines for followers or following code. Example to disable followers, do this:

/*
$sFriendsPhotos = $this->getTwitterFriendsPhotos($sUserName);
$sData .= '<thead class="collapsable collapsed"><tr  class="headers"><th class="block_header" colspan="2">Following</th></tr></thead>';
$sData .= '<tbody style="display: none;"><tr><td class="colspan" colspan="2"><div class="input_wrapper input_wrapper_custom">'.$sFriendsPhotos.'</div></td></tr></tbody>';
*/

And same applies for following block .. hope that helps.

Thanks for the great feedback on the mod so far, it really gives encouragement to keep working on the mod and making it more better :)

Hi I've just purchased your mod and installed it per your screen shots - which were easy to follow ( thank you for that) but when I go in as a site visitor and click the Twitter link I get the following error:

Help?

My email address is Lee@m4design.co.uk and the link to the development site is http://leesmallwood.co.uk/tcn

Thanks

Hi,

We notice that your dolphin site resides in a sub-domain i.e. tcn and the MODULES_LOC has not been set. So kindly ensure that the MODULES_LOC in classes/config.php has this:

define("MODULES_LOC", "/tcn/m/d2twitter");

Let us know if you still encounter the issue and we will investigate further.

Thanks

Armaan

Setup was easy and everything looks great visually.  However, the Twitter posts don't actually work.  Nothing happens when you press submit.  It appears to be loading, but it never posts to Twitter.

Hi,

Can you PM us the ftp access just to our mod folder and we can have a look...

Thanks

I click on sign in with Twitter button after logging into dolphin...and I enter my credentials...then select Allow. It say twitter is redirecting me back...I get back to the twitter page but it is not logged in...and no tweets. Just stock info under Twitter Search from install.

Thanks

Hello,

How would it be possible to indicate more then on key word other then kiteboard in :

/modules/mods4dolphin/d2twitter/classes/config.php

define("SEARCH_KEYWORD", "kiteboard");

Thanks

Hi there,

I just purchased and installed D2T from the combo package. I see the same issues as jmonroe.

Please help. My site is http://www.desionweb.com

Thanks

Nanda

Hi,

Thanks for the purchase, we have sent you the module via email.

Thanks

Hi,

I haven't received the D2T module by email yet. But I did receive the license keys for D2F module.

Thanks

Nanda

Jmonroe,

Did you find any solution to your problem..? I tried everything, nothing works so far.

Ok, I found and fixed the issue.

The OAUTH_CALLBACK value in config.php file should be http://yoursitedomain/modules/mods4dolphin/d2twitter/classes/callback.php.

The same should be entered in Twitter application callback URL value.

Hope this helps at least one..!

Thanks

Nanda

Yes, the callback url should match your site domain name for e.g. if your site does not uses www. then your callback url (both in twitter and in the app config file), should not have www as well....thanks

Any update in progress for 7.0.8?

Thanks

The same module should work fine for 7.0.8 as well...

Thanks

Armaan

i installed this and got it working but the friends and the followers boxes are both empty

 We have requested access via PM, please check your PM...thanks

Does this work with 7.0.9?

Thanks!

 Yes, it works with all versions of Dolphin 7.x including 7.0.9.

Thanks,

armaan

ok i just installed this mod and the "twiiter updates" blocks are remaining empty http://www.rangerschat.com/m/d2twitter/home/

and when i try to send a tweet with it, it acts like it sent but when i look at the twitter profile it never sent the tweet

emailed mods4dolphine about the module not working right, the status will not update,, and will not post to twitter.. emaield him when i bought the new version of this mod 3 days ago, and posted here in the forum and still havent got any contact from him.. not liking this

... all this time later, STILL DONT WORK

 hi

Today i tried to install this in new update and got error as shown

Installation of: Dolphin Twitter Failed

INSERT INTO `sys_menu_admin` (`id`, `parent_id`, `name`, `title`, `url`, `description`, `icon`, `icon_large`, `check`, `order`) VALUES (NULL, @iExtCat, 'modzzz_tweet', 'Dolphin Twitter', '{siteUrl}modules/?r=tweet/administration/', 'Dolphin Twitter Settings', 'modules/modzzz/tweet/|tweet.gif', '', '', @iExtOrd+1);

 the whole module has problems,, i begged and pleaded to get it fixed, sent them all the info, they logged in a couple times said they needed a day or two to sort it, months later,, STILL DONT WORK! .. modules is trash!

INSERT INTO `sys_menu_admin` (`id`, `parent_id`, `name`, `title`, `url`, `description`, `icon`, `icon_large`, `check`, `order`) VALUES (NULL, @iExtCat, 'modzzz_tweet', 'Dolphin Twitter', '{siteUrl}modules/?r=tweet/administration/', 'Dolphin Twitter Settings', 'modules/modzzz/tweet/|tweet.gif', '', '', @iExtOrd+1);

 Sorry, somehow we were not subscribed to this thread and did not saw your messages. We have released v3.1 of the mod which is compatible with Dolphin 7.1 and should solve all your issues. If you have any questions, please let us know...

BTW, the forum should automatically subscribe the author..that would be a handy feature!!!

INSERT INTO `sys_menu_admin` (`id`, `parent_id`, `name`, `title`, `url`, `description`, `icon`, `icon_large`, `check`, `order`) VALUES (NULL, @iExtCat, 'modzzz_tweet', 'Dolphin Twitter', '{siteUrl}modules/?r=tweet/administration/', 'Dolphin Twitter Settings', 'modules/modzzz/tweet/|tweet.gif', '', '', @iExtOrd+1);

mods finally got back to me with an updated version, I ripped out the one with the bugs, installed the new one and all seems well now.. the mod is great, I just was having trouble getting it to work on one of my sites, but after the new update it worked like it was suppose to, He says he didnt know i was having issues cause boonex didnt auto subscribe him to the forum, I can believe that and i believe it was just an honest mistake... all happy now

Just installed D2 Twitter on my new 7.1.0 site and installation went perfectly smooth....

But upon signing into the twitter app and clicking the "Authorize" button it just goes to a white screen....

Now whenever I go to twitter module on my site- "White Screen"

Seems to be broken for 7.1 ? :~

Any ideas on what I need to do?

 Hmmm it's strange....One of my members was able to sign in perfectly fine....She posted screenshots so I could see...Looks pretty cool...But I can't seem to log into it......OH OH...THERE!

OK Seems to work fine now....I noticed I had another browser logged into Twitter already and it didn't like that X~)

Alright- We're good to go! Cool Mod!

Needs an update for the new API 1.1 for Twitter here's the article:

API v1 Retirement is Complete - Use API v1.1

So what are we supposed to do here? 

It no longer works and I get the following error:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/xxxxx/xxxxx/modules/mods4dolphin/d2twitter/classes/BxD2twitterModule.php on line 129

Waiting on Mod4Dolphin,  Armaan,  please respond. From my understanding this time of the year is big for vacations. So hopefully that is what is happening and we should hear something shortly. I have hid the module from my members for now, telling them of the situation of the change in OAuth.

Yep, I get the same error and no longer works??

I sent an email to Mod4dolphin@gmail.com and it was returned.  

Twitter has updated their OAuth API recently and we are working to upgrade our mod as well, please give us 3-4 days and we will release the new version that will be compatible with 7.1.3 and also include the twitter fix.

Thanks,

Armaan

Any update on the update yet?

I think my 3-4 days is different then your 3-4 days. Please update.

I think that this is becoming ridiculous and quite unfair.  You promised 3-4 days and now it is 3-4 weeks and no ones gotten an update.  If you are not going to do it, then say so and that way your CUSTOMERS will know their options and prospective customers will as well.  I have several mods from you which have not been updated and I am beginning to believe that you do not intend on doing so.  

Took a while but the fix is now ready, will release new versions this weekend....

Thanks,

Armaan

Looking forward to it.  Thank-you

Twitter mod has been updated to V4.0 and is now compatible with Twitter Oauth API v1.1 and Dolphin v7.1.3.

Facebook mod is compatible with Dolphin v7.1.3 as well.

You can download both mods from the market.

Regards,

Armaan

TY Mod4dolphin for update. Here's some requests, issues or bugs.

Followers not populating Followers Block

Each member cannot pick or perform Keyword Search from D2twitter Home page. Although the Admin can specify the keyword in Admin

Tweet block too large, should be dynamic with a countdown on characters

Would be nice to automatically have a short cut in the Member's bar with Twitter Icon and number of new tweets.

Also, Installation should have included the removal of blocks or Language keys no longer used or instructions "How to"

The ones showing up are:

bx_d2twitter_search_page

bx_d2twitter_view

These are showing in deano's block tools as Blocks. Are  they needed?

We noticed the 'Followers' issue as well but it's surprising that Friends work fine as both of them use similar calls. It looks like an issue at Twitter end, I will try to reach out to Twitter and fix it ASAP.

Yes, the new twitter api does not allows anyway for user to inject a query. They have a search widget but their website says that there's no way to enter a dynamic query. We cannot do anything unless they fix it at their end. Yes, you can remove those two blocks...

We will think about adding the twitter icon and number of tweets in the future versions.

Thanks Guy! 

This twitter mod does not work for me anymore since I had to update my server to php 5.4.. After I upgraded the mod just shows a blank white page.

 Please send us the site access via PM, we will take a look...

Thanks,

Armaan
