Hello,

I have the XMT widget installed and working for my twitter account. So it shows all of my tweets and retweets.

However, I would also like to pull in to the widget tweets that contain certain hashtags/@. For example, if I add the following to the configuration for "Show tweets that contain these words", the twitter feed is empty and thus does not appear. If I remove these "words" the feed reappears. Any suggestions? I would like to display twitter feed items from others and I thought by using this feature I could do that. Does this feature only work on my tweets?

@RunKeeper, #RunKeeper

That option will only show tweets that contain both of the keywords.
Since you have no tweets that contains both @RunKeeper and #RunKeeper, so nothing is displayed.

For your case you should use the above solution.
Leave Show tweets that contain these words emtpy, then set your Additional criteria to:

1=1 or twt like '%@RunKeeper%' or twt like '%#RunKeeper%'

That option will only show tweets that contain both of the keywords.

Thanks for the quick reply. You state that "since you have no tweets that contain". Does this mean that ONLY MY TWEETS are pulled in? What I want to do is pull in ANYONES tweets that have these keywords not just mine. So, for example, if you posted a tweet that contained "runkeeper" I would pull it in and it would be displayed along with my tweets. I am not seeing this occur. It seems to only pull in my tweets.

thanks again!

This plugin can retrive your own tweets or other people tweets which addressed to you (@RunKeeper - if your twiiter account is RunKeeper).
Make sure that you enabled this option: Inc. replies to you?

So, tweets not addressed to nor tweets that are not mine can not be retrieved? I am looking for a way to pull in ANY tweet with certain keywords. Do you know of any plugin that can do this -- pull in my tweets as well as tweets from anyone else that contain certain keywords?

Thanks again,

If you want to utilize Twitter search system, you can tweak this plugin a bit.
You can edit this file (xhanch-my-twitter/method/public.php)

First, remove/delete these codes

$api_url = sprintf(
    ' http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.xml?screen_name=%s&count=%s'.($xmt_acc [$acc]['cfg']['inc_rtw']?'&include_rts=true':''), 
    urlencode($xmt_acc[$acc]['cfg']['twt_usr_nme']), 
    $lmt * 2
);
xmt_twt_raw_imp($acc, xmt_get_file($api_url), 'twt');

Then, change this code

$api_url_reply = ' http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=to:'.urlencode($xmt_acc [$acc]['cfg']['twt_usr_nme']);

To

$api_url_reply = ' http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=RunKeeper' 

Assuming that you want to search tweets that contains RunKeeper

I've tried using / replacing this code but nothing changes. Actually, when I am editing it in the Plugin editor it shows that it is inactive (which might be the issue). Any ideas on how to "activate" this code on public.php?
