Since the last posting did not accept code, for everyone getting a success message but no update in twitter, modify the setStatus function in twitter.php as per

For everyone getting a success message but no update in twitter, modify the setStatus function in twitter.php as follows:

public function setStatus($stat) {

if(strlen($stat) user:$this->pass”);

$result = curl_exec($curl);
$resultArray = curl_getinfo($curl);

if ($resultArray['http_code'] == 200) ;
return true;

return false;
}

Tried what c0bra suggested but still does not work

PHP server returns this error message each time a request is sent:

* About to connect() to twitter.com port 80 (#0)
* Trying 128.242.240.20… * connected
* Connected to twitter.com (128.242.240.20) port 80 (#0)
* Server auth using Basic with user ‘xxxx’

Added the following code to collabtweet.php to fill out the URL shortening problem:

function shorten_url($matches) {
// EDIT: the preg function will supply an array with all submatches
$long_url = $matches[0];

// API stuff here…
$url = “http://tinyurl.com/api-create.php?url=$long_url”;
return file_get_contents($url);
}

function tweet() {
include_once(’twitter.php’);

global $twitterUser;
global $twitterPass;

$curTwitter = new twitter(”$twitterUser”, “$twitterPass”);

$loggedin = authenticate();

if ($loggedin == 0) {
echo “0″;
exit;
}

$tweetShortened = preg_replace_callback(’|http(s)?://([a-z0-9?./\-\_=%#]{1,500})|i’, ’shorten_url’, $_POST['tweet']);

$status = $tweetShortened.’ -’.$_SESSION['username'];

if ($curTwitter->setStatus($status) == true) {
echo “$twitterUser”;
} else {
echo “0″;
}
}

It would be nice if you had URL shortening integration that detects that a URL has been entered and immediately shortens it.

Our server has curl and supports it. But the app doesn’t wants to work… tested in two servers.

found the bug in the software:

just add

curl_setopt($this->ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(’Expect:’));

@ line 38 (where the other curl options are) in the twitter.php file and it will work!

nevertheless nice work!

Thanks! Works like a charm. If you have any problems, check if your server allows curl.

Regards,

Installed Collabtweet, everything seems to be in order; it says, “Your twitter profile has been successfully updated.” Nothing actually happens on Twitter, though. Any ideas what might be going wrong?

Saw more feedbackon this in the website but unfortunatelly without answers.

Take care
