Thanks for the great plugin! But I’m getting the same error message as two above comments
Would be superb if you can solve that, I’m thinking there is an unreliablity with fopen funtion
Looks like the plugin broke when Twitter temporarily disabled their old API. I understand that will happen permanently in May. Will you be updating your plugin to use their new API?
