AutoTweet [support]

I am having trouble... Running ZC 1.5.0 and installed the newest version of AutoTweet.. but when I make a new product I get this:


URL was not shortened for Twitter: www.opalessenceshop.com was used instead. Reason: INVALID_LOGIN
Twitter could not be updated: 401 Unauthorized: Could not authenticate you.
To paste the code into twitter yourself use:
New product available: Natural Vanilla Flavored Lip Balm .15oz! Only $3.07. Check it out now at www.opalessenceshop.com

Now, my file was not as described in the readme file:

The readme file says it will be like this:

Quote:

---

Now edit lines 96 through 100 like so:
a. $twitUsername = your twitter user name.
b. $twitPassword = your twitter password.
c. $bitlyUsername = your bit.ly user name (available for free at www.bit.ly)
d. $bitApiKey = your bit.ly API Key, find it by logging in to bit.ly and clicking settings.

Mine looked like this:

Now edit lines 96 through 100 like so:
$oauthToken = "Enter oauthToken here"; //twitter app "my access" token
$oauthTokenSecret = "Enter oauthTokenSecret here"; //twitter app "my access" token secret.
$bitlyUsername = "your bit.ly user name"; //bit.ly username
$bitApiKey = "your bit.ly API Key"; //bit.ly api key.

So I'm not sure what to do... can anyone help?

Ok I got the thing to tweet to twitter, but it still says

URL was not shortened for Twitter: www.opalessenceshop.com was used instead. Reason: INVALID_LOGIN

I have reset my bit.ly API key, so I know that's right... I think my username is OpalEssenceShop... at the top of the page it says, for example, "@OpalEssenceShop Account Settings" (at https://bitly.com/a/account) so what is going wrong?

And treefrog, how did you get it to tweet on update with an option to not tweet? I'd really like that, because a lot of times I add products when I have time, ahead of when they're actually ready to sell, then make the product and go in and change the status of the product or change the quantity from 0 to 5 or whatever--and I'd like to tweet it *then*...

Hey folks! I added this mod earlier today and I was getting the 401 error like many of you are. I did 2 things to fix it. I'm not sure which one was the cure.

1. I created a new app and used the new #'s it gave me for the code

2. for some reason when I copied and pasted from the Twitter developer page, there were extra spaces after " and the beginning of the auth codes. I deleted the space.

The app works perfectly now I just wish there was a way to turn it off and on.

2 questions:

1) I tried following the directions here: http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.p...322#post996322 but replacing stuff with "twitter" but it didn't work... in an ideal world I would have both AutoFacebook and AutoTweet at the bottom of the page and with yes/no checkboxes... could someone who knows how to code better than me (just about any 3rd grader, for example) tell me where exactly to move my AutoTweet* and AutoFacebook code to in the page, and verify/fix the checkboxes thing so that it works?

2) More of a cosmetic thing, but when it sends a tweet with my new products, it lists their price with four decimal places. For example "$3.1200" ...is there something I can tweak to fix that? It just looks silly.


*I already have my AutoTweet code near the bottom of the page, and it tweets on add AND update, but I want to be able to turn it off if I'm making lots of small changes so I don't flood my stream. When I moved AutoFacebook to the same area, it all broke.

I am installing the Auto-tweet mod and have a question regarding how to set up the twitter dev app. The website and callback are the 2 questions that I am uncertain how to answer. The Zencart 1.50 site url is: store.bbiclan.com, and my twitter account is @TheMortician4. What inputs should I place in these pages?

Is anybody else experiencing problems, I havent put any new products on since April and now it doesnt seem to work, no errors that I can see, is it just me or has something changed with Bit:ly??

Can any one help, please?

I have battled the whole day to get the autottweet to work but am getting the same problem:
"URL was not shortened for Twitter: west-net.co.za was used instead. Reason: INVALID_LOGIN"

What i've done so far

Reset the Twitter API
Reset the Bitly API
Deleted and reconnected the account in Bitly
Cleared history and cache
Tripple checked usernames tokens etc.

One thing i'm not sure about is curl it is enabled on my wamp but not sure how to do it on the server

Any HELP would greatly be appreciated:smile:

many thanks newbie@westnet

Hi there, you need to go back to your twitter api and under the settings tab of your application, scroll down to Application type and select Read and Write. Then at the bottom, click the update button.
Now click on the Rest Keys Tab and reset your application keys.
Next go to the Details Tab, scroll down and click the "recreate my access token" button.
Afterwards copy your new consumer key & secret as well as your new access token key and secret to the update.php file and upload to server.
Add a new product and it should work then.

I have one little problem that I need help with please.
Currently my store's default currency is Rands, but with the auto-tweet, the prices in the tweets are displayed in $ instead of the default R.
How to fix this?
