Thanks for the info.
I’ve made it work once, but if I try again I see the “There was an error posting the message.” message.
Any idea?

Amazing! Thank you! After 2 days reading and testing, and testing, I was about to give up trying to update a twitter account from a site but with your post and just 5 minutes, 5!, when my game started today its associated twitter account (@PS4Quest) was updated just in time! A million thanks! BTW, allow me to post here these words for those that may be searching what I was: “update twitter status with codeigniter” or “codeigniter twitter status” (hopefully this will bring you here some traffic and they will find an extremely easy and working solution… both parties win!). Again, a million thanks!

This script is designed for one user, and the second pair of access tokens represents the user that the tweet will come from. (It's the account of the user setting this all up.) The first pair of tokens authorizes the application. Multi-user setups are a bit more work, but there's a tutorial here if you need one.

This may be the dumbest question ever but…WHO sends the tweet? There’s no login information in this script, right? No user/password. Is this script only usable by the actual account that created the CONSUMER/ACCESS keys? My understand was that the point of creating those keys was so that multiple users could use the same app, right? So how would one use those keys but tweet from a different account?

Thanks and, again, sorry if this is easy and obvious, I’m new to PHP/Twitter API and there’s painfully little about posting tweets (or multiuser OAuth) out there.

Was using this OAuth script as a part of a much larger script with tremendous success (thank you for simplifying the implementation process). However, at some point in the last couple weeks, it stopped working. When trying to make a test script to see if it’s something on my end, I began receiving a 500 error:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@ajburnettonline.net and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Any ideas?

When someone writes an piece of writing he/she
maintains the idea of a user in his/her brain
that how a user can understand it. Thus that’s why this post is amazing. Thanks!
