The AutoTweet product series posts the title and url for new Joomla articles, forum posts etc. automatically as status messages to twitter and/or Facebook (pro version). AutoTweet NG consists of a (main) component and several plugins. The Pro version adds support for Facebook and has some extra features. All available plugins are working with the free and the Pro version. All AutoTweet extensions are under GPL 2.0.

Features

• Uses the twitter REST api to post messages.
• All plugins are customizable: account, category/section to post for, link position, show section/category, post private articles, post modified articles, exclude sections/categories, use title or text for message, additional static text (e.g. for hashtags), short url service provider (now also bit.ly possible) etc.
• Works also with sh404sef and JoomSEF (and - of course - Joomla! embedded SEF support).
• Automatic support for short URLs.
• Extension API: AutoTweet NG has an extension API. So 3rd party developers can trigger AutoTweet to post a status message.
• Automatic message resending: Sometimes you will get an error message when posting. This can happen from time to time when twitter or Facebook is overloaded or the API is down. AutoTweet resends the status message automatically if there is an error on api site.
• AutoTweet posts also later published or republished articles.
• AutoTweet NG comes with a backend component. The component logs all posted messages (including error and pending messages) and you can manage and resend this messages in the components backend.
• AutoTweet NG supports now articles with present publish date. (This articles are posted automatically to twitter when published by Joomla or you can post them manually from AutoTweet NG component backend.)

Extra features in Pro version

• Support for Facebook (works with personal profile AND Facebook pages etc.).
• Manually mode: All generated status messages are stored in the AutoTweet database and must be published (approved) manually by the admin from the backend.
• Support for SEF URLs when post (article etc.) is saved from the backend. Tested with Joomla! core SEF, sh404SEF and JoomSEF. (since version 1.1)
• Post to Facebook pages as the page itself with the page account (and not as the user with the personal account). (since version 1.1)
