Is this able to work with new products? ie, when a new product is added, it will auto tweet? I can obviously pay for this development. can you contact me please?

thanks

PAJ,

I’m going to triple check all the app setting, tokens, keys, etc. this morning. I’ll be more than happy to give access to my server for you to check all my work. you can email me – chris.hood at shubee dot com.

Thanks again for all your help and support, really looking forward to getting this project complete!

Hi Chris,

Been a while since I developed this but I have used the tweet method a lot in various apps without any problems. It does sound like it is just the tweet process that is failing which is likely to be a problem with your twitter account, double check everything is set up ok with your twitter app. If your dev server is accessible would be happy to have a look for you. Have been wanting to adapt this into a module for Magento for ages to make it easier to use…

Thanks PAJ!
I was able to successfully add the tracking code to the bit.ly url. However, I’m having an issue getting the actual tweet to work though. In testing, I get this on success.phtml after checking out:

http://bit.ly/oCgrZc is 20 chars.
Suffix and URL are 24 chars.
Characters remaining for tweet : 116

But there is no indication of Twitter connection or sample tweet information.

I’ve created my Twitter app, entered all tokens and consumer key info, uploaded the OAuth files, updated the script to point to the correct files… but still no luck on the tweet.

Any insights greatly appreciated!

You could add a query string to the URL when you create the shorturl using something like :

$shorturl=make_bitly_url($custom->getProductUrl(). '&trackingcode=12345','YOUR-BITLY-USERNAME','YOUR-BITLY-API');

Where in the code could I add a tracking code to the URL so it would be included in the shorting process?

Thanks
