This bi-directional connector addon allows each user to crosspost their Friendica public posts to Twitter, import their Twitter timeline, interact with tweets from Friendica, and crosspost to Friendica their public tweets.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
To use this addon you have to register an [application](https://apps.twitter.com/) for your Friendica instance on Twitter.
|
|
Register your Friendica site as "Client" application with "Read & Write" access we do not need "Twitter as login".
|
|
Please leave the field "Callback URL" empty.
|
|
When you've registered the app you get the OAuth Consumer key and secret pair for your application/site.
|
|
|
|
After the registration please enter the values for "Consumer Key" and "Consumer Secret" in the [administration](admin/addons/twitter).
|
|
|
|
## Alternative configuration
|
|
|
|
Add your key pair to your global config/addon.ini.php.
|
|
|
|
[twitter]
|
|
consumerkey = your consumer_key here
|
|
consumersecret = your consumer_secret here
|
|
|
|
To activate the addon itself add it to the [system] addon setting.
|
|
After this, users can configure their Twitter account settings from "Settings -> Addon Settings".
