## Description

This twitter plugin outputs your twitter updates to your WordPress blog. It linkifies
hash tags and @replies while properly caching. It is called TweetiePie because it
uses the [SimplePie WordPress plugin](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simplepie-plugin-for-wordpress/)
to pull the tweets from twitter and cache them. Caching is necessary to minimize
the times that your blog has to talk to twitter. This will speed up your site and
[keep twitter happy](http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Rate-limiting).

This plugin requires WordPress 2.8 or greater. If using an earlier 2.8 version it
also requires the [SimplePie WordPress plugin](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simplepie-plugin-for-wordpress/).

## Installation

 1. Upload the tweetie-pie folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Please make sure that the cache directory has the proper permissions ( typically
    775 ). If you don’t notice any files in the cache directory after installing your
    plugin and viewing the blog, most likely your permissions aren’t set properly on
    this directory.

## FAQ

  Do I need SimplePie?

Not if you are using a newer version of WordPress. Later 2.8 versions of WordPress
include SimplePie so a plugin is not required. If you are using an older version(
why?) then download and install the SimplePie core plugin.

  How do I use the direct function call?

A direct function call looks something like this:

    ```
    <?php gettweet_tp("elightbo", 2, true, true)?>
    ```

This will show two of elightbo’s tweets with a time-stamp that links to the tweet
on twitter’s website. The most important thing to keep in mind when using the function
call is the order of arguments. Here is the order:

 1.  Your twitter username
 2.  Maximum number of latest tweets to display (default 1)
 3.  Show time-stamp of tweet
 4.  Link to tweet from time-stamp
 5.  Text to append before tweets. (default `<ul class="tweetie-pie">`)
 6.  Text to append after tweets. (default `</ul>`)
 7.  Text to append before individual tweet ( default `<li class="tweet">` )
 8.  Text to append after individual tweet ( default `</li>`)
 9.  Text to separate tweets. (default ”)

The defaults are used if nothing is supplied to the function. So in this example
my tweets would be displayed in an unordered list.
