Twitter Avatar plugin now supports the new Twitter API

Because of the recent changes in Twitter API, my Twitter Avatar Reloaded WordPress plugin stopped working. I rewrote the way my plugin communicates with Twitter and updated the code to use the new API and now my plugin works again.

New Twitter Backend

Instead of rewriting the entire Twitter backend again, I am not using the excellent wp-twitter-api, provided by @timwhitlock which allows you to easily communicate with Twitter API from your WordPress plugin.

If you are a WordPress plugin developer and want to communicate to the Twitter API from your WordPress plugin, then I would highly recommend you to use wp-twitter-api, instead of creating your own.

Setting up Twitter App

The new version of the Twitter API needs you to make authenticated calls even to get some basic information about a twitter screen name. So after you installed the plugin you need to follow these steps so that the plugin could interact with the Twitter API.

  • Register a Twitter application at https://dev.twitter.com/apps
  • Note the Consumer key and Consumer secret under OAuth settings
  • Log into WordPress admin and go to Settings > Twitter API
  • Enter the consumer key and secret and click ‘Save settings’
  • Click the ‘Connect to Twitter’ button and follow the prompts.

Download

This is a mandatory update. You can download the latest version of the Plugin from the Plugin’s homepage or install it using the Plugin installer.

Feedback

Please keep the feedback coming and if you want me to add any new features or find a bug, please leave a comment or post about it in twitter.

Email Log plugin is now fully WordPress Multisite compatible

I just released version 1.7 of my Email Log WordPress plugin, which adds full compatibility with WordPress Multisite.

About Email Log WordPress plugin

Email Log is a WordPress plugin that allows you to log every email sent through WordPress and provides a UI where you can view them. The logged emails can be searched based on date, email address or subject.

WordPress Multisite compatibility

Earlier versions of Email Log plugin had some compatibility with WordPress Mu (older version of multisite), but I didn’t test it for long time. Also when WordPress Mu got merged into WordPress core, certain things have changed and my plugin was not fully compatible after that.

I came to know about it recently and then started to work on it to make it fully compatible with WordPress Multisite, since I have moved this blog to WordPress Multisite as well. I also learned a lot about WordPress Multisite during the process and will write a separate blog article about it soon. Update: As promised, here is the new blog article explaining how to properly create tables in WordPress Multisite plugins.

Dev Time

This release took me about 2.5 hours of development time. You can find more details about the dev time tracking which I have recently started doing in a separate blog post.

Download

You can download the latest version of the Plugin from the Plugin’s home page.
