Our site used to pull tweets, but recently stopped doing so and won`t show anything more current than late June. We had previously updated to twitter_pull-7.x-1.0-rc5, which worked for a while; we understand that we need a version that uses oAuth, and want to comply, but this has been nothing but trouble. We`re doing this on a staging site, in hopes I can get it working and then replicate it on the live site.

Today, I updated to (in the order shown below, as it only became apparent I needed to when I`d made the previous updates):

  1. Twitter Pull 7.x-2.0-alpha2
  2. Twitter-7.x-5.8
  3. oAuth-7.x-3.1

I ran the update script and cleared caches each time. There is no OBVIOUS sign of failure, except at this point NO Twitter feeds are visible.

Following advice I`ve seen on other forum threads, I tried going through "site.com.com/admin/config/services/twitter/settings", registering the application, then entering the resulting oAuth Consumer information.

But I seem to keep circling back to the following error message: "Could not obtain a valid token from the Twitter API. Please review the configuration." But, where or how to get the correct token is a mystery.

I'm logging this as "documentation" for component, because that seems to be where the error is: in making clear what the missing steps are.

Any advice would be appreciated.

I had this problem too -- search the issue queue for Twitter module.

Hi,

Problem solved: turns out it wasn't actually Twitter Pull. If you're interested, posted what it finally took to solve the problem here: https://drupal.org/node/1929378#comment-7822713

Thanks for reporting back!

The steps you posted look like the ones that the UI guides you through. As this is all to do with Twitter module, not TP, I'll close this.
