Admiyn Juitter WordPress Plugin

I have found recently a plugin based on Juitter, “Juitter WP” developed by a brazilian guy known as Leo Baiano, so I decided create my own version extending the options of the plugin to all option supported in the Juitter Jquery Plugin developed by Rodrigo Fante.

This plugin will show in your posts pages what the people are talking about the “Search Object” at current time in the twitter and will update the page in a interval of time that you can specify; See that my plugin offer to you the option to choose what use as a “Search Object”, the option supported are “Author Name”, “Post’s Category”, “Post’s Tags” or “Post’s Title”, this stuff is very useful because there are a lot of kinds of usage of the wordpress, and each type requires diferent options.

See the display in the post page:

Understanding the Options:

* searchType: you can use “searchWord”, “fromUser”, “toUser”
here you define if the system must search for “words” that people are talking about in twitter, search for twitts from users that the name match with the “searchObject”, or search for twitts to users who the name  match with the “searchObject”;

* searchObject: you can choose between (author’s name, post’s category, post’s tags or post’s title)
here you should inform what part of your posts will be used in the Twitter search

* lang: restricts the search by the given language
this option is optional, if you want set it use for example:
en – for english
pt – for portuguese
etc…

* live: indicates the time in seconds to wait before request the Twitter API for updates.
You should change just the number after the live word, exemples of use:
live-15 – to set the interval with 15 seconds
live-20 – to set the interval with 20 seconds

* placeHolder: Set a place holder DIV which will receive the list of tweets example
Don’t change this field if you don’t know well what you are doing. Most of guys will not need to change this field.
This field could be changed with other DIV id located in a diferent place on the page, it allow you to change the position where the tweets appear, but have care, note that you should create your own css style for your new div, because the default css style is based on the default name.

* loadMSG: Loading message, if you want to show an image, fill it with “image/gif” and go to the next variable to set which image you want to use on

* imgName: Loading image, to enable it, go to the loadMSG var above and change it to “image/gif”

* total: number of tweets to be show – max 100
In the above example I’m using 5 as total, to show just 5 tweets in my page

* readMore: read more message to be show after the tweet content

* nameUser: insert “image” to show avatar of “text” to show the name of the user that sent the tweet

* openExternalLinks: here you can choose how to open link to external websites, “newWindow” or “sameWindow”

* filter: insert the words you want to hide from the tweets followed by what you want to show instead
example: “sex->censured” or “porn->BLOCKED WORD” you can define as many as you want, if you don’t want to replace the word, simply remove it, just add the words you want separated like this “porn,sex,fuck”… Be aware that the tweets will still be shown, only the bad words will be removed
