I’m trying to build a feed of my own posts and am running into issues.
I have tried following the tutorial here:
http://www.sitepoint.com/oauth-for-php-twitter-apps-part-1/
I had to change a portion of this on the step which has the line
$request = $oauth->getRequestToken();
to
$request = $oauth->getRequestToken(‘http://mysite.com/twitter/validate.php’);
Which is a directory on my site structure with a validate.php file which has the code from the next step.
And everything seems to go okay up until I get to step 5 of the section labeled “Create a Request Token and a Registration URL”.
Twitter does not seem to provide me with a pin. I click the authenticate button and it brings me to the callback I specified earlier “http://mysite.com/twitter/validate.php” with
http://mysite.com/twitter/validate.php?oauth_token=XXXX&oauth_verifier=XXXX
Is there any official reference on what is required to make use of the api? All of the documentation I find doesn’t seem to explain much.
https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/user#oauth-tool
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, helpful links, tutorial, explaination of the process, anything really.
Thank you in advanced
