The current Twitter API (v1.0) will stop working soon. Twitter DB has been modified on release 7.x-1.1-rc1 to work with Twitter's new API (v1.1). Please, if you use any previous version of Twitter DB, update to 7.x-1.1-rc1, otherwise your Twitter DB will stop working.

Note: I do not have fixed the release 7.x-2.0 because it is not used by so many people. About 10 installs so far.

=====================================

This module downloads all tweets from a specific Twitter account and saves them in the database. The block display get the tweets from database and not directly from Twitter.

That avoid problems with Twitter rate limit that returns following message if over 150 requests is done per hour:

"Rate limit exceeded. Clients may not make more than 150 requests per hour."

7.x-2.x

The 7.x-2.x version supports configuration of multiple accounts and/or hashtags and each of them is dedicated a separate block and a panel pane.

Comming features:

  • Twitter account as field
