majdi Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 currently, the tweet generated by IPB share via twitter have the following form: forum_name - title - link i suggest changing the forum_title by the official twitter account so it becomes: @twitter_account - title - link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collin1000 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 If you sent the tweet out starting with @twitter_account it would be sent as an @reply and not a tweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collin1000 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 yeah but i want this feature so my official twitter account appears in every tweeted message by my members. So, this actually isnt a suggestion for IPB, its a feature *you* want. Which can be easily added by just changing your templates. Open up the IPB file atadmin/sources/classes/share/plugins/twitter.php Find this part: $url = "http://twitter.com/home?status=" . urlencode( $title ) . '%20-%20' . urlencode( $url ); Change it to this: $url = "http://twitter.com/home?status=@Username" . urlencode( $title ) . '%20-%20' . urlencode( $url ); Replace "@Username" with the username you wanted to use. Save and upload. Tada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
