Twitter OAuth Settings

[ii silver ii]

I'm using the following to try and get the new Twitter API running but no tweeting luck at the moment.

<?
require_once 'twitter/TwitterOAuth.php';

define('CONSUMER_KEY', '123');
define('CONSUMER_SECRET', '123');
define('OAUTH_TOKEN', '123');
define('OAUTH_SECRET', '123');

$connection = new TwitterOAuth(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, OAUTH_TOKEN, OAUTH_SECRET);

$content = $connection->get('account/verify_credentials');

$connection->post('statuses/update', array('status' => 'This is a test status using the new API'));
?>

With the twitter/OAuth.php and twitter/TwitterOAuth.php that are recommended and obviously with the correct keys.

http://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth/zipball/0.2.0-beta3

However I'm having absolutely no luck with getting any updates, what am I doing wrong?

You don't really need the

$content = $connection->get('account/verify_credentials');

bit, but follow this and you shouldn't have a problem : Posting from an RSS feed to twitter using OAuth

Well I've followed this tutorial exactly but no luck at all?

Twitter, PHP oAuth: update status

 

[RhesusChrist]

Try :

$test = $connection->post('statuses/update', array('status' => 'This is a test status using the new API'));

var_dump($test);

and post the output.

Try :

$test = $connection->post('statuses/update', array('status' => 'This is a test status using the new API'));

var_dump($test);

and post the output.

I doubly agree this should work in updating your status, but you can also drop the '$test =' part. Instead to see the output you could simply replace that with the 'echo' command.

Edit: I also just noticed this is not an official library wrote by twitter itself, so maybe it's out of date?

Edit2: Do you have cURL enabled?

Well you could just dump $connection too, yes.
It was like 8 in the morning when I wrote that, ha.

The library works as described in the link I posted earlier in the thread, I'm using that exact thing on 8 twitter accounts and feeds.

Try :

$test = $connection->post('statuses/update', array('status' => 'This is a test status using the new API'));

var_dump($test);

and post the output.

The output I got back... (keys replaced with 123)

It's the official demo on the Twitter api site so I guess so

Edit2: Do you have cURL enabled?

Curl is definitely enabled

No idea why this example did work (must have been a settings problem in the include)

But the following works great for future use:
