I needed a way to create embed the feed into content, so I wrote up the following filter.

It accepts all of the 4 arguments from comma seperated list in the tag [twitter-pull:ARGUMENTS].

From lessions learnt in other modules, I'm using double quote support to escape the title allowing titles like "My account, other title stuff".

Also, rather than returning an error message, I check for the existence of the theme instead, and I use the default (NULL) if not found.

[twitter-pull:URL]
[twitter-pull:URL,TITLE,NUM,THEMEKEY]

These insert Twitter feed content based on the URL, (e.g. @username or #hashtag) and optional title (TITLE), feed number (NUM), and theme key (THEMEKEY) properties.

As an aside, is there an easy way to create a listing based on a singular list from the user? So rather than @user , I'm looking for @user/list-of-interest

And any reason for the number limit? 20 doesn't sound like much. (I do not know what the Twitter API limits are)

Cheers

@Alan D.

Lists are now supported.

20 is the limit of the API itself.

Thank you for the patch.

Bumping up the priority. Would like to get to this as soon as I can.

Patch needs to be re-rolled and we need a similar patch for D7, though :(

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Is there still interest in this? If a new patch was submitted would it be applied?
