I think that is exactly what I have done!

TWITTER Access Token Secret: http://twitter.com/oauth/authorize
TWITTER Access Token: http://twitter.com/oauth/access_token

In order to set it successfully to 'browser' type, I had to enter a callback url. I entered my root url www.gentlemansgazette.com (the forum is located at www.gentlemansgazette.com/forum )

In the twitter app, my settings are:
Application website is: http://www.gentlemansgazette.com/forum
I did not check the box 'Use Twitter for login:'

Please tell me whether anything is wrong. Thanks

You need to enter the hashed code from Application Details page for your application from http://dev.twitter.com

http://dev.twitter.com > Your Apps > MyBBPyblisher (or whatever you called it) > OAuth section and grab the Consumer Key and Consumer Secret

From that same page, click the right panel My Access Token and grab those two values, the Token and Token Secret

Those four values go into the plugin settings

Thank you, the token and token secret was the issue. I fixed it and now it is tweeting. However, it only tweets the title of the thread without providing a link although I entered the bit.ly information correctly.
I use the bitly account already with wordpress and I know it is working. So I must have to change something in the mybbpublisher settings, mustn't I?

Here is my twitter account: http://twitter.com/gentsgazettede

you need to enable the bit.ly for twitter setting, not just enter the bit.ly user info. there is a "switch" in the settings for both twitter and facebook.

Hmm, I enabled it in the MyBB settings 'Use bit.ly URLs in Twitter updates?
?' as well as on twitter. Still not working though...

I am not in a position right now to look at it in detail. When I get home from work later tonight I will see if I can find some time to dig some more.

Thank you!

Is it possible to add the forum also to the post? Now only the topic is send to facebook, but it is sometimes not useful because there are 2 times the same topic but in other forums.

Can I access the forum name from the var $mythread like you use $mythread['subject']?

It is possible for us to edit what is tweeted?

I am still looking into this. Been swamped with work. Maybe later today.

I do not think that the forum/category name is available from the get_thread function, so I'd have to add more code to pull that info.

Edit after its been Tweeted or edit what gets tweeted? If you want to edit what get tweeted, just edit the included language file to say what you want. There are 'fb' and 'tw' variables so the status update text are independent.

If you remove the Bit,ly user info from the settings and set the plugin to not use Bit.ly for Twitter, does the URL get posted to Twitter?
