How to Install DevBuddy Twitter Feed Plugin, Manually
Getting Started
Before this plugin can be used the end user will need to offer it Consumer and OAuth keys that are used to authenticate your communication with Twitter. To obtain these:
- Visit the create application page on the Twitter developers site. You may be required to sign in, your usual Twitter.com login credentials will work here.
- Fill in the necessary details and click the “Create your Twitter application” button at the bottom. Don’t worry about being creative here, the details you put in won’t be public (unless you make them public, that is).
- If all goes well you’ll be taken to the “Details” tab of the new app. Scroll down and look for the “Create my access token” button near the bottom of the page and click on it.
- Finally, click on the “OAuth Tool” tab. This page holds the Consumer Key, Consumer Secret, Access Token, and Access Token Secret necessary for this plugin to function. Copy them over into your settings.
Rendering the feed
You can use either the:
<?php db_twitter_feed() ?>
template tag, which takes an associative array as its only parameter; or the[db_twitter_feed]
shortcode
Both accept the same arguments/attributes which are all listed and explained below. All arguments/attributes are optional.
Options set via tempate tag or shortcode take highest priority. If an option is not set in the tag/shortcode this plugin will then check to see if the option is set in the WordPress admin. If no options have been set the plugin will render with the defaults, listed below
feed_type (string); user_timeline
, search
, list
default: user_timeline
The type of feed that is to be rendered.
user_timeline
produces a feed based on what is set for theuser
option, andsearch
produces a feed based on what is set for thesearch_term
option,list
produces a feed based on what is set for thelist
option.
user (string); default: twitter
Any valid Twitter username.
search_term (string); default: #twitter
The term you wish to search Twitter for, with or without a hashtag.
list (string); default: twitter-ir/twitter
The slug of a list followed by the username of the owner, separated by a “/”.
count (int); default: 10
The number of tweets you want displayed. The maximum Twitter allows per request is at 200. Page speed can be substantially affected when loading multiple feeds on one page.
exclude_replies (string): yes
or no
; default: no
The option of whether or not to keep replies out of the feed displayed. Go with
no
to keep replies in,yes
to take them out.
exclude_retweets (string): yes
or no
; default: no
The option of whether or not to keep retweets out of the feed displayed. Go with
no
to keep retweets in,yes
to take them out.
relative_times (string): yes
or no
; default: yes
The option of whether or not to display times as relative to when they were posted or as absolute times. As an example, a relative time would be “10 mins ago”, while an absolute time would be “17:38, Tue”. An absolute time is useful where feeds are being cached where relative times can quickly become inaccurate.
show_images (string): yes
or no
; default: no
The option of whether or not to display embedded images within the rendered feed. The caching of images is left to the browser to handle.
https (string): yes
or no
; default: no
The option of whether or not to load media from Twitter over their secure connection.
default_styling (string): yes
or no
; default: no
The option of whether or not to load the default stylesheet bundled with this plugin. Go with
yes
to load it,no
to skip loading it. Bear in mind that once the stylesheet is loaded it is loaded to the page so all feeds on the page will be affected by it. Hence, when rendering multiple feeds you only need toyes
with one, and leave it out of the others.
cache_hours (int); default: 0
The number of hours you would like the feed cached for. The cache is saved using WordPress’ own
set_transient()
function.
clear_cache (string): yes
or no
; default: no
Clears the cached version of the feed. If a cached version exists this plugin skips looking at the options altogether so this is a must if you’re changing any options. If you’re using either the template tag or the shortcode without passing information (i.e. all settings from settings page), the cache will be cleared each time the “Save Changes” button is clicked on the plugin’s settings page.
consumer_key,
consumer_secret,
oauth_access_token,
oauth_access_token_secret (string); default: N/A
See the first part of the “Installation” tab to find out how to get these. They are necessary for authenticating your communication with Twitter and this plugin unfortunately won’t work without them.
