plugin for developers and designers that sets up WP Cron to pull in and cache user's stream using OAuth and the Twitter v1.1 REST API.
It's all that developer needs to incorporate Twitter feed on their site, OAuth handling, caching to avoid rate limiting, and utilities to format Tweets correctly without predefined styles to work around.
The widget outputs HTML5 which with classes to style on every element, including flagging Tweets as Retweets and Replies.
array of these objects is returned by the template tag instead of WP Post object, or individual can be constructed by passing the ID of Tweet to the object constructor..
This will be the function used to get Tweets from DB.
This function takes array of parameters as follows $args This tells us how many Tweets to get from DB, defaults to 5 $args This tells us how many Tweets to skip over when selecting our Tweets, defaults to 0 $args This tells us whether or not to get Retweets, defaults to true $args This tells us whether or not to get Replies, defaults to true.
Instead, this plugin provides the function that will return array of Tweet objects that can be looped through and used to build Twitter feed.
