Twitter Feeds Changed for WordPress Users

We are still testing hundreds of clients sites to see what is going on with Twitter. Twitter made a decision to change their login methods for those using WordPress plugins. Therefore, if you are using a plugin to post to twitter, you will need to upgrade it or change it.

We are currently testing and feel confident with Twitter Tools for WordPress, while using the Facebook twitter application and RSS Graffitti. Why so many tools?

1. Twitter Tools posts from our blog to Twitter.

2. RSS Graffitti picks up the blog feed and puts it on Facebook, a little delayed but appears about every 30 minutes. It does not update status with images, so we opt out of the status update.

3. Facebook posts to Twitter, if it is a status update only, therefore the blog post going onto Twitter does not get posted twice.

I know, it’s complicated.
