Error when adding the field: Twitter: Follow to a view

Same error for me!

Same here. Even changing the rewriting of the field it still happens. Also, in the preview screen for the view doesn't seem to show the error. Any clues?

When var_dumping the content of values on that line the result is a property called "twitter_account_screen_name" rather than "twitter_screen_name".

did this fix it for you? I applied 2032057-2.patch and it didn't clear it up.

Hello
Up
I have the same error ...
Anyone for more instructions ?
Thanks

The patch #3 https://drupal.org/comment/8304053#comment-8304053 fixed it for me. Thanks!

It's seem be ok. And the patch apply perfectly.

I have applied patch given in #3 but still it doesn't work. It gives me an error like:

Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$twitter_account_screen_name in twitter_views_handler_field_follow->render() (line 128 of /var/www/example/sites/all/modules/contrib/twitter/twitter_views_field_handlers.inc).

Now it gives an error for twitter_account_screen_name..

Does any one has any idea?

Ok, got the solution.

The php code is as follow where I got the error:

/**
* Adds Twitter Follow link.
*
* @see https://dev.twitter.com/docs/intents#follow-intent
*/
class twitter_views_handler_field_follow extends views_handler_field {
  function query() {}
  function render($values) {
    drupal_add_js('//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js', 'external');
    return '<span><a href="https://twitter.com/intent/user?screen_name=' . $values->twitter_screen_name . '">Follow</a></span>'; //LINE 127
  }
}

Here if you print the $values, you will get object but in that twitter_screen_name is missing. This object will give you the properties which are included as fields in views.

So solution for this is to add "Twitter: Login name" field which relates the twitter account screen name in your views and mark it as exclude from display if you don't want to display. So that in $values object it will get the twitter account screen name property value.

This works for me.

#3 didn't work for me

#9 i don't understand, can you explain more? like were to make the field, did you put some extra code etc.

thanks in advance

@Staler...

the problem lies with this "follow" field be dependent on the existence of another field called "Login name". Once you add this the problem goes away.

So within the twitter view click "Add" within Fields section and look for the following field...

"Twitter: Login name
The screen name of the author of the tweet."

That should fix it.

P.S. remember to tick "Exclude from display" within the "Configure field: Twitter: Login name" if you don't want this field showing up.

Ahh okey i understand now, i was thinking to hard :)

thnx for the quick respond.

It needs to be the author field, not the user field.

Triggering the testbot.

This checks a few possible values for the screen name.

This affects both the 7.x-5.x and 7.x-6.x branches.

Committed.
