Embeddable Twitter Searches

[Moses]

I've just made a hack that will allow you to embed a twitter stream into a forum post.

To use it, you need to use the code as shown below.

[twitter=Subjet]Twitter Search[/twitter]

For Example, to embed a twitter search with a Subject of "Brumbies v. Reds" and to show tweets from three twitter users, @redsrugby, @only1sully and @bj_rugby and two hashtags #redsvbrum, #REDvBRU

[twitter=Brumbies v. Reds]from:redsrugby OR from:only1sully OR from:bj_rugby OR #redsvbrum OR #REDvBRU[/twitter]

This will show like so:

[twitter=Brumbies v. Reds]from:redsrugby OR fromnly1sully OR from:bj_rugby OR #redsvbrum OR #REDvBRU[/twitter]

So later we just do the same for the Trial match and send the word out?

 

[Moses]

Maybe start a thread for the trial match with this in it's first post - if you notice other people tweeting during the match just edit the post and add them to it

 

[Sully]

Can we put a hashtag in?Been using #redsvbrum

 

[Sully]

And I'm at friends tonight I guess I need someone to run this.

 

[Brumby Jack]

I'm going to set one of these up for tonights Brumbies trial later in the day.

The Force v Reds trial is also on later tonight isn't it?

 

[MrTimms]

Yeah, tonight.
