As a simple test for trying out the Block functionality, I created a Twitter block.
It shows the user's avatar, username, and the latest x number of tweets in a users stream.
As a first shot, I'm not sure if it is programmed the 'C5' way, so please let me know what improvements I could make.

ah! the other suggestion

Timestamps should be optional too...
I'm happy to implement some of these if you're not feeling it! :)

Twitter Block v.2
Dec 02, 2008 at 9:08 PM
I've updated the code. It is attached.
Updated is the ability to hide the avatar, change the username to an alternate title, hide the timestamp, and hide repsponses. I'm having some difficulty with pulling the saved information back out of the database for the form. Anyone want to help with that?

Thank you for the block :)

Hey I wanted to thank you for the block and all the effort you have put into it :)I haven't installed it since i don't have a twitter account, but anything to advance c5 as a whole in my mind is greatly appreciated :)

Hey hey... This twitter block works pretty great. However I have a few suggestions that might spice it up.
1. Make the avatar and username optional via the add/edit interface.
2. Make responses to other twitters hidden or optionally hidden.
I thought I had one more, but I can't think of it.
Good job!

I've just downloaded the Twitter Block and going to install it shortly. My Site is still under construction but you will be able to check it out at http://rosspublicrelations.com
Options Not working
Dec 09, 2008 at 3:22 PM
I've installed and this is a great tool like I stated, but I can't seem to control the number of post that are showing. I have the option set to 3 but I'm showing 5 tweets. Anyone else had that issue?
I'm showing about 10
Dec 09, 2008 at 5:13 PM
Showing at least 10, I don't use the service but I figured I would test it.

Hey I'm getting a Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /homepages/25/d169524231/htdocs/RPR/blocks/twitter/view.php on line 35
This was after the upgrade. Any ideas?

Plugin Fix
Jan 27, 2009 at 9:15 AM
For me, this turned out to be a cURL problem. I modified the plugin controller to use PHP stream functions instead and it seems to be working fine for me. The modified controller.php is attached. This should be placed in blocks/twitter/
protected tweet?
Feb 13, 2009 at 8:51 PM
check if your twitter is protected. once i unprotected my tweets it worked with gigamyke's fix.
just wondering if a future version might have areas for sharing protected tweets?

I would love to see a div at the bottom with a graphical element to follow the displayed twitter user. Also, I would like to see a more elegant way to edit the display that editing the actual php.
I used it on my site at http://www.clevyr.com/contact and I am quite happy with it!
:)
Namaste!

Warning: Invalid Argument
Apr 21, 2009 at 3:09 PM
I receive this message:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /homepages/29/d290152409/htdocs/blocks/twitter/view.php on line 35
I've tried all 3 versions supplied by damiro and the fix suggested by gigamyke -- and still receive the same warning -- any ideas? Was I supposed to manually edit any of the php files?

how do you customize it?

it's awesome, thanks so much for putting in the time to do it..
i'm looking to replace my username display to something else (my website name was too long for twitter ...)
also for some weird unexplainable reason, the title function does not work for me (everytime i type in a title it doesn't save it or display it)
thanks!!

Hi Damiro,
so far I really like the block you've created and it works very nice!
I think it's a hard one, but is it possible to have twittered url's also made available as links through the block? Currently links are not clickable, do you know how to do this?
Hope to hear from ya,
thank you,
Robert

Knew it was only a short matter of time before someone put this together. Great job.
Some Fixes
Jul 05, 2009 at 9:17 AM
First, thanks for the block. Excellent. It looks much nicer than just adding a Twitter RSS feed.
I've made some changes to it:
1. CSS formatting based on the parent website more than the block itself.
2. Different CSS spacing, layout, etc.
3. Functionality to automatically hyperlink any URL in a tweet (popping the URL in a new window to boot).
4. A handful of small bug fixes
You can see how the slightly changed version looks here: http://www.pavelle.org/index.php/technology/concrete5_twitter_block...
You can also download the code there, or from the attachment here.
Thanks again for writing this!

Hi,
I have tried every version of this Twitter block on this page but I just can't get it working.
I get a similar error mentioned above - apart from this time it's from controller.php and not view.php:
"Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /actual-path-here/blocks/twitter/controller.php on line 61"
I am running Concrete5 v5.3.1.1
Any ideas how I can get this working?
