I am having exactly the same problem. I would love to have this up and working for me as I don't find Mauku or Witter terribly practical, particularly as Mauku has no way to view searches and the search function on Witter doesn't seem to work for me. Having my searches in my Conversations would be fantastic. If anyone knows how to fix this bug, would be very grateful. I've uninstalled/reinstalled the plug-in several times, rebooted numerous times, waited a bit and tried again, nothing seems to work

Thanks for a great app. I have a suggestion though. When you tweet yourself, the message appears as:

user @user Message text ...

Amongst other things it breaks the twitter plugin on facebook as it does not allow status updates other than original tweets (as from your twitter homepage).

Would it be possible not to prepend the @user to the message text when you tweet yourself, making it behave like a "native update"?

Also, tweeting yourself makes the twet "echo" back to the conversation in the N900. Seems a bit redundant...

ive tried uninstalling any test or dev apps apart from the twitter plugin and still the same.might do a full backup and start fresh to see if that works.

i would love to get this working as id prefer to be using the integrated im/messaging client for everything.

Just some thoughts...

I have installed this app, and while there are bugs, I think the potential is there...

One big feature of Twitter that is missing though, is the Timeline...and I read here this is wanted by many in some form or fashion...

I too wanted this, but having thought about it, having my Timeline implemented into the Convesation app would be to messy, I would be receiving notifications all the time, so it is not pratical...

So I then realized another way of recieving my Timeline...my RSS reader...

I have my RSS reader on my desktop, great little app, keeps me up to date with the latest from my favorite sites...but why not also the latest from Twitter?

Looking on my Twite page, sure enough,enough there is a RSS feed I can view/read and subscribe too for my own Timeline...perfect, or so I thought...

But when I go to save this RSS feed into my N900 RSS reader, it says the address is invalid???
I can go there, I can view it, I can subscribe on the PC...but not on my N900 RSS reader???

I thought this was the perfect solution to his problem...it gets your Twiter Timeline on your desktop, and you recieve all your @, DM's and RT via the Conersation app...

Can someone else try this, see if it works for them...as I would love to get this working.

I have another "problem" with the twitter plugin... It shows every contact i have as online, which is kind of misleading, because it is me actually who's online, not the contacts. I'd rather have no onlinestatus for twitter so the onlinestatus in the adressbook really means the contact is online...
I hope my description is not too weird, it's kinda hard to explain for me.
The second thing i'd really like to see is support for identi.ca which shouldn't be too hard as it uses nearly the same api as twitter...

Thanks for this very useful addition and i look forward to its future.

just to update, i have done a reflash of the firmware and i have the twitter integration working fine now, must have been a conflict with something i had installed from dev or test.

happy days.

I also failed to get my Twitter home timeline with N900 RSS reader. I think the reason is authentication - N900 RSS reader probably doesn't support that.

I have plan to implement home timeline as what search is implemented now. See previous discussion in this thread.

The problem is that Twitter contacts don't have online/offline concepts, but in order to integrate with Contacts and Conversations, this plugin has to implement Twitter as IM which must have online/offline status.

So the answer is that you can't get rid of online status of your Twitter contacts. However, the positive side is that we have plan to make it more reasonable. See http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...9&postcount=29

The Twitter plugin on N900 is better than you think ...

You donīt need any RSS to check Twitts ...

here you have the detailed info on how to use it ...
