# Sorry, Twitter broke this module!

This plugin uses two Twitter API v1.0 actions to get data. Twitter has now deprecated the 1.0 version of the API so this plugin WILL NOT WORK. I'm not deleting it for historical purposes, it is still an example of how to build a Joomla module even if it doesn't work.

# mod_twitter

Just a simple Twitter widget for use with the Joomla CMS. Written for version 2.5, not tested with 3.0 yet.

My biggest issue with the other twitter modules on the market is that they're trying too hard. This module won't integrate with every other social network feed on the planet. It won't drown you in options. It will draw you a simple feed of tweets from a Twitter account of your choosing. It will also transform links, @usernames and #hashtags into links.

# Features

* Simple setup
* Easy to modify
* Free
* Display tweets by @username
* Display tweets by #hashtag, or #multiple #hashtags
