AutoTweet [support]

Didn't work. Still getting invalid login. I've used my login ID for Twitter and my email. What am I missing guys???

I have no idea where to go on this problem. Gonna take a break cause it's giving me a headache. Feel free to chime in if you have any idea why I keep getting the invalid login error!!

Tried adding Twitter login.....still invalid login. Checked to make sure it was the correct Twitter login and it is. Tried removing it completely...still IL. It loads a generic store url but no direct path to the item nor does it shorten the link.

Guess it isn't meant to be used by MOI!

After a couple of days of driving myself battier with this app....it hit me in the middle of one of my naps.:blink:So I checked and changed and reloaded....I FIXED IT!! :bigups::bigups::clap::clap: I B Bad!! uh huh uh huh!!!:laugh:

It is working like a charm now

great module.

problems for me the url doesn't get shortened and just posts the store home URL.

Can I easily change it to post the real link to the item rather than trying to shorten it?

Can I change the price from US$ to UK£

and finally is there anyway I can make it tweet a product that isn't new? most of my stock is added by CSV file so I don't actually create a new product, if it tweeted everytime I updated a product that would do as I could quickly edit each product and not actually change anything?

Am I a pain? - well yes probably :blush:

1. If you're using autoTweet3, when bitly fails it will automatically use your the real link instead. Check your bitly info, i've never heard of it failing. If you're using another mod that alters your URLs autoTweet wont work with those. If none of that works, then the answer is No, there is no easy way to do this.

2.Yes, on line 122 of update_product.php you should see

if ($showprice){ $message .=  ' Only $' . $products_price . '.'; }  

Just change the 'Only $' to: 'Only £' However, I get conflicting reports on the pound sign working so if it doesnt show for you I would either make it say 'Only ' which will make it read something like:* 'new product only 9.99'*
or
You can spell out pounds so that it would look something like *'new product only 9.99 pounds' *or change the word pounds to 'GBP' or whatever you like by using:

if ($showprice){ $message .=  ' Only ' . $products_price . ' pounds.'; }

3. Yes, move all the code from lines 90 through 157 (where you see the beginning and end of autoTweet) to line 176. This will tweet only when a product is updated (note: hasn't been fully tested but I have heard from the people who have tried it that it works.)

4. Yes, haha jk. :cool:

Hope that helps

I logged into bitly and reset the bit.ly api key and put the new one in the file and that's working great now :clap:

using the £ sign gives this error:

Twitter could not be updated: 400 Bad Request: Invalid Unicode value in one or more parameters
To paste the code into twitter yourself use:

and with either having it as just 'only' and/or adding GBP it adds 00 to the end of price so it gets displayed as only 9.9900. or 9.9900GBP. so think I'll just disable the price part and not use it :)

worked a treat, thanks for your time :hug:

on a side note the same problem happens with price on autofacebook - add £ no £ shows and 00 appears at end of price

Ok i've installed this and get no errors...
well, no error messages!

basically i add a product and the screen goes blank when i click to add.

if i remove the twitter folder then i can add products fine... re add the twitter folder and the cart messes up... so something is wrong.

if i click to go back then it sayd the product is in the catagory but it doesnt show up, and nothing gets posted to twitter...

I am getting this error
Twitter could not be updated: 401 Unauthorized: Invalid / used nonce

Is this possible to fix this?

Installed and posted new product, received this error:

Jamie, are you around?

I need your help...please :blink:

Here's the code for AutoTweet

$prodUrl = urlencode(zen_catalog_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, 'products_id=' . $products_id));
//short url function.
function shortenUrl($user, $key, $shortenUrl){

      $ch = curl_init();
      curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
      curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
      curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
      $data = curl_exec($ch);
      curl_close($ch);
return $data;

}
//use oAuth library
require_once 'twitteroauth/twitteroauth.php';
//function to shorten url
$shorten = shortenUrl($bitlyUsername, $bitApiKey, $prodUrl);
//start message w/ or w/out price
$message = "New product available: " . $_POST['products_name'][$_SESSION['languages_id']] . '!';
if ($showprice){ $message .= ' Only $' . $products_price . '.'; }
//if shorten fails use $storeUrl
$bitStatus = simplexml_load_string($shorten);
$http_code = $bitStatus->status_code;
$status_txt = $bitStatus->status_txt;
if ($http_code != 200){$shorten = $storeUrl;
$biterror = "URL was not shortened for Twitter: ";
$biterror .= $storeUrl . " was used instead.";
$biterror .= " Reason: " . $status_txt;
$messageStack->add_session($biterror, 'caution');
} else { $shorten = $bitStatus->data->url;}
//finish message.
$message .= ' Check it out now at ' . $shorten;
//the connection to twitter API

how to change currency, i use indian rupees in my zencart but this is used USD ($)

how to change ?

Hi,

I have a problem with auto tweet. I currently have zen cart 1.3.9h and after installing and configuring auto tweet, when I add a product, it appears a page not found and if I click refresh it tells me that the product seemed empty.

Thanks in advance for your responses.

Solved it.

It was a setting from bit.ly. Share Settings and untick "Warn me if I try to share a message without a link or with only links."

Hi,

Thanks for this great mod. It works fine on new created products, however, we often use copy to create new products. If we copy a product it isn't send to twitter. is there a solution for this?

Problem solved :clap:

I copied all the stuff between start autoTweet 3.0 and eof autotweet to some rule below (see part of code)

      $sql_data_array = array_merge($sql_data_array, $update_sql_data);

      zen_db_perform(TABLE_PRODUCTS, $sql_data_array, 'update', "products_id = '" . (int)$products_id . "'");

      // reset products_price_sorter for searches etc.
      zen_update_products_price_sorter((int)$products_id);

      ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////
      //// INSERT PRODUCT-TYPE-SPECIFIC *UPDATES* HERE //////


// start autoTweet 3.0
//User Settings.
$consumerKey = "xxxxxx"; //twitter app consumer key.
