Twitter address not working in Ajax Scroller
« on: 20 May 2009, 16:26 »
Can anyone help.  I have RSS Feeds working well in the module, but when I try to do one as Twitter, I am getting no result.

What format should the URL for Twitter feeds be?  Is it simply http://www.twitter.com/xxxx

Thanks

No, it should be the address of your Twitter feed in XML format like:
http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/19278869.xml

The feed link is found on your Twitter page on the right (look at the http://twitter.com/sakicnet and the link "RSS feed of sakicnet's updates"). You just copy that address and change the last ".rss" to ".xml". It will work with .rss too because the module will replace it automatically but the right format is xml.

Thank you so much, I got it working.

Any idea why on another module, using the apple trailers feed and set to display RSS with images as yes
http://images.apple.com/trailers/home/rss/newtrailers.rss

I get no images in the output module?

If you use this feed, do you get the images?

Thanks

It's something with the feed format. Firefox do not display images on that one either. Not much you can do about it. If you use a feed in correct format like http://www.sakic.net/rss/ images will display.

Hi I have another problem.  I have followed your instructions regarding using individual styleID.css files, but I seem to have a problem.

So I created style203.css and changed the font size for title to 12pt style202.css has a different font size and style201.css has a different font size.

Why is it, that all of my modules appear with the same formatting, taken from style201.css

Can you help.

I would have to see the site and your CSS files so please send the URL. You can send mail if you don't want to post here.
