    Default Twitter sidebox Cached

    This Zen Cart add on allows you to display your latest tweets in a side box.

    An important feature is that the script only connects to the Twitter server once in a while and caches the result. This prevents you from exceeding the maximum amount of requests per hour that Twitter allows you (currently 150). And it also prevents that your site slows down when the Twitter server is slow or not responding.

    For now the zip file will be attached to this post. It will be uploaded to the "Plugins" later.

    @TODO:

    - Add Twitter and/or Follow Us icons

    And maybe:
    - Tweet filter. So that you can hide some specific tweets from your shop visitors.
    - Load some extra tweets, but display the desired number only.

    The last one is because tweets are still counted after deletion (for some time?). So if you set to display 5 tweets and you delete 3 of your recent tweets only 2 will display. I am not sure if this is a Twitter bug or that it is by design. If the latter is the case it's probably a good idea to load some extra tweets and limit the number that is displayed.

    Hi Image using the latest version of zen.
    I installed this module and it worked fine. When I went to edit the username in the file specified in the help file and upload to my server it doesnt change the user?? Still your account.
