First I was trying to use Twitter Tools plugin, but it didn’t really work well for me. I’m so glad I found this. Thank you for sharing it with the world!

ok, I made changes AFTER a digest was posted (which was wrong twitter account) and I kept seeing that digest.

So after re-doing theme, plugins, etc.
doing manually archiving and it’s bringing in the proper account. So I think I’m all set! : )

This is a very cool theme.

The issue I’m having is that it’s pulling in wrong tweets.
I have 2 twitter accounts.

I keep checking all the settings, account info, deleting,
unactivating, reactivating, etc.

I don’t know where the problem lies.
Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Gabrielle

Great work! Thank you. I’ve implemented it on my website without problems. It even matches (roughly) my color scheme.

This theme works beautifully for me – check it out if you like at http://www.jaysonelliot.com/twitter

I was able to import all of my tweets – about 2,000 of them – using a tool called Twitter Importer:
http://bradt.ca/archives/twitter-importer-for-wordpress/

It uses a little hack in the RSS feed to force Twitter to give up the entire history instead of just a few recent ones.

Once I imported all my tweets (follow instructions at the link above), I installed the “Auto-Hyperlink URLs” plugin by Scott Reilly, which automatically put the links back on all of my tweets.

I have one question for the author or anyone else – does anyone know how to add pagination to the theme so people can jump quickly through the two hundred or so pages of tweets?

I managed to set it up. It was quite easy, actually. You can see it here: http://tweets.diletante.net I will try to make it look like my main site: the layout is similar. Thanks again!

Yeah, I wish I stumbled across this services earlier (or rather they were around sooner) so I only have about 60% that I’m missing of mine. I have about 7500 and was able to grab 3200 of ‘em so I suppose some is better than none.

@leland

Yeah I’ve been down that rabbit hole but the plugin doesn’t seem to be supported right now. Will keep looking though.

Thx

I know Smashing Magazine released a free WordPress plugin called Twittar. Basically it makes it possible to use Twitter avatars instead of Gravatars in comments.

It would probably need to be modified for this specific purpose, but hopefully it’ll lead you in the right direction.

Here’s the link: http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/01/08/twitter-avatars-in-comments-wordpress-plugin/

Yeah, I had that problem when I was making my own tweet archive. In fact I was only able to archive ~900 or so out of over 6000. It’s definitely best to start backing up as soon as possible so you don’t lose a ton like me.
