- Introduction
- ============
- Twitter module allows listing tweets in blocks or pages. Its integration with Views opens the
- door to all sorts of formatting (ie. as an automatic slideshow with views_slideshow). It also
- provides useful input filters to easily link Twitter accounts and searches within text.
- Twitter's submodules allow posting to twitter, executing actions/rules when tweeting or login
- with a Twitter account.
- OAuth
- =====
- Except for just listing tweets, OAuth module is required to authenticate against Twitter. If you
- just want to list tweets in a block, follow the steps at http://drupal.org/node/1253026.
- When you download the OAuth module, get the latest stable release available at http://drupal.org/project/oauth
- Once OAuth has been enabled, go to admin/config/services/twitter and follow instructions.
- How to add a Twitter account to a Drupal user account
- =====================================================
- Read http://drupal.org/node/1253026 for details.
- How to use the username and hashtag input filters
- =================================================
- 1. Go to admin/config/content/formats.
- 2. Select the text format where you want to use the filters.
- 3. At "Enabled filters" check the Twitter converters.
- After that, clear cache and try to create a page with the following body:
- #drupal @drupal
- The above links to a search in Twitter over the #drupal tag and a to the @drupal profile.
- These filters are avilable when configuring a tweets Views.
- How to post to Twitter
- ======================
- 1. Read the OAuth section to install and configure OAuth.
- 2. Once OAuth has been configured, go to admin/config/services/twitter/post and select from which
- node types a user may post to Twitter and the default message.
- 3. Verify permissions at admin/people/permissions.
- 4. Add a Twitter account and try to edit or post content.
- How to sign in with Twitter
- ===========================
- Existing and new users can sign in with Twitter by enabling the twitter_signin module. The following scenarios are being contemplated so far:
- * A visitor logs in with his Twitter account and, once authenticated at Twitter.com, he fills in
- his email in the Drupal registration form and receives an email to log in and set his account
- password.
- * An existing user signs in with Twitter and then logs in into his Drupal user account. This results
- in the Twitter account getting related to the user account so next time Twitter sign in will work.
- * An existing user with an already configured Twitter account can log in automatically by clicking
- on the Sign in with Twitter button.
