Twitter feed

deadherring

Has anyone had any luck getting a twitter feed working on the magic mirror? I installed the module and inputted my account information in config.js per the instructions and just get a black screen on startup. If I remove the Twitter info from the config file everything works fine.

Thanks,

Nathan

@deadherring I have not. But I do want to report that I am having the same issue.

Post your config so people can check it

Sorry for the delay. Here’s the relevant portion of my config:

{
     module: 'twitControl',
     position: 'middle_left',
          config: {
               maxNumTweets: 3,
               consumer_key: '[redacted]',
               consumer_secret: '[redacted]',
               access_token_key: '[redacted]',
               access_token_secret: '[redacted]'
               }
},

Did anyone ever get the Twitter module working?

Negative. I have, however, made some progress. Just FYI - If you attempt to position a module into a segment that doesn’t actually exist, you will receive an error of cannot read property 'appendChild' of undefined. This actually means “The position ‘center_left’ doesn’t actually exist, jerk.”

Having fixed this, I now see the title “Twitter Feed” on my mirror. It does not, however, actually display any tweets. Still… progress.

Got any updates on this problem? I was about to use twitcontrol on my mirror but get same problem as above. Can only see the Title, but no feeds.

I converted the the desired twitter feed to RSS using https://twitrss.me/

@enith2478 does this give you a static or a dynamic feed from twitter?

Hi, does anybody has had any issues with TwitControl recently? My module stopped working, anything changed with API codes?
