Twitter Tools Date Issue

Posted in: WordPress

There is currently an issue with Twitter Tools due to a change in the data format for the date being sent from Twitter. I expect the date format to be fixed on the Twitter end and Twitter Tools to begin working properly again soon. If Twitter decides to change the date format permanently, I’ll get a new release of Twitter Tools out ASAP.

Once the date format has returned to the old format You may want to go into your wp_ak_twitter database table and remove tweets that have bad dates. Assuming they are within your last 20 tweets, Twitter Tools will then recreate them for you with the proper dates.

I’ll update this post as new information warrants.

UPDATE ~20 minutes later: And they’ve fixed it already. Yay!

    Thank goodness! I was starting to wonder what was going on with my tweets! They weren’t showing up! Thanks for the update - it does work now on my blog!
