Duplicate twitter plugin?

[m750]

My wife and I share our blog, and I'd like to duplicate the twitter plugin, to include both our tweets in the sidebar plugin. In the past I hacked the flicker plugin to do the same, but this plugin is a bit more advanced. Any ideas how to duplicate it, so I can run two instances?

Hi!

Try to edit the serendipity_plugin_twitter.php file and search for 'stackable'. Set that variable from "false" to "true" and you can use the plugin multiple times. However, I am not 100% sur ethat the sidebar plugin works twice on a page, so you'd have to experiment with this...?

I'm not sure what is next after making that change? dupe the folder?

No, you would keep that, and simply go to your plugin manager again, and install the twitterplugin a second time by picking it from the list of available plugins...

HTH,

That worked, I realize it was a noob question, but I couldn't find a reference to 'stackable' or dulicating a pluggin in the user manuals.
FWIW, it seems to work, there is a note that one should use the php version for multiple instance in the admin page, so that is how I have it configured.
