I have AutoTweet installed, but nothings functioned. No new article was feeded to my twitter account.

Joomla runs on a server with:
PHP 5.2.8
Curl support is enabled
Joomla is v1.5.15

Installation:
AutoTweet-Component 2.4
Automator-Plugin 1.1
Content-Extension 3.2
All plugins are published and activated.

There where no problems with the installation.

Unfortunately, looking at your FAQ, I didn't find a solution.
First, I didn't get any AutoTweet error or success message like the example on
www.1st-movers.com/faq/3-autotweet/3-i-h...ts-posted-to-twitter
Where can I see this message? On the site I write and save the new article?

In the beginning I didn't use any category or section filters. Normally all new articles had be published. But there wasn't.
Than I used filters for categories and sections. Again - no new articles published.
In booth cases there weren't also no messages listed in the AutoTweet Component.

So, at least, I don't know what's happened. Thank you in advance for any assistance.

Hi!

Yes, the message should appear at the top of the site after saving the article.

So the problem is with the plugin before anything is send to the component.

1. To be clear: The Content-Extension post tweets for Joomla core content articles, not for any articles of other extensions (like MyBlog etc.). So you have saved a new Joomla content article?

2. Please enable debug mode in AutoTweet component preferences and test again.

3. Can you post a screenshot of the plugin options of the Content-Extensions?

Hi Ulli,
thanks for the fast answer!

Yes, the message should appear at the top of the site after saving the article.

OK - there has been always the standard Joomla-Message "Der Beitrag wurde erfolgreich gespeichert" after saving a new article. No message from AutoTweet.

1. To be clear: The Content-Extension post tweets for Joomla core content articles, not for any articles of other extensions (like MyBlog etc.). So you have saved a new Joomla content article?

Yes. I wrote a normal article in a standard Joomla categorie/section. No article which uses a comp-editor like EventList, Efemerides, Fabrik.

2. Please enable debug mode in AutoTweet component preferences and test again.

I tried it, but where is the output? The Joomla debug list is normaly at the bottom of the site. But there was nothing.

3. Can you post a screenshot of the plugin options of the Content-Extensions?

Of course. Also a shot from the comp preferences.


I hope you have enough infos for an assistance.

Hmmm, this looks all good!

Please do an additional test with the following settings:
- empty fields for category/section filters
- Post private articles: Yes/Ja
- Post modified articles: Yes/Ja

(Of course) your articles are set to publish (Published: Yes) when saving?

You are german?

I come back to this thread tomorrow.

Sorry for my late answer. I've been on a business trip the last two days.

So, I did all what you want:

- empty fields for category/section filters
- Post private articles: Yes/Ja
- Post modified articles: Yes/Ja


And the result:

- The new article has been loaded to twitter.
- Now, I got the information "AutoTweet - twitter status has been updated, article id = 3941 (attempts: 1)"
- But: above this message (in a blue box) I've got a message in a yellow box:


It looks fine - isn't it?
Maybe this is the debug info? Is this the information that these tools are running correct now?

Yes, I'm German, sitting in the Hauptstadt.

Ich antworte jetzt schnell auf deutsch (Bin gerade auf dem Sprung...):

Die Ausgabe ist die Debug-Ausgabe und das sieht ok aus. Wenn Du das Debugging in den AutoTweet-Preferences im Backend deaktivierst, ist die Ausgabe weg.

Ansonsten solltest Du Einstellungen zu 'post private', 'post modified' und den Kategorien im Auge behalten, ob das immer so funktioniert wie erwartet. Eigentlich sollte das alles funktionieren, da das Content-Plugin mein erstes Plugin war und daher doch sehr 'ausgetestet' test. (Ansonsten einfach nochmal melden).

Viele Grüße
Ulli
