Hi,
it would be great if the Twitter plugin could make use of the new Twitter "follow me" button instead of the "follow me" link. The new button can be generated here:
https://twitter.com/about/resources/followbutton
Thanks for the new release 1.6, update worked as a charm, as usual!

I thought so too and had a look in
serendipity_plugn_twitter.php. Changed line 298 from:
Code: Select all
echo '<p id="twitter_follow_me"><a href="' . $followme_url . '" class="twitter_follow_me">' . PLUGIN_TWITTER_FOLLOWME_LINK_TEXT . '</a></p>' . "\n";
to include the code provided by Twitter:
Code: Select all
echo '<p id="twitter_follow_me"><a href="https://twitter.com/YOURNAMEHERE" class="twitter-follow-button" data-show-count="false">Follow @YOURNAMEHERE</a>
<script src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" type="text/javascript"></script></p>' . "\n";
Seems to work ok but I don't know if this generates any errors somewhere.

As I am working on the microblogging plugin at the moment, I will add widget options to the plugins configuration. I hope it will be on Spartakus soon, but I have to betatest it a little more.
Later: Woah, I have to admit this widget is really cool. I added it into the beta plugin in my blog.

Adding the widget option would be great!
For now I use the manual modification from Mangek which seems to work fine!
Thanks and cheers,
Lars

I released the new version 1.39 of the microblogging plugin to Spartacus some minutes before.
The twitter followme widget is added with simple configurations (no need to copy and paste code i.e.).
I hope it works everywhere w/o problems as it did in my and some other blogs while betatesting.
