PresideCMS Extension: Twitter API

v1.0.1 Preside Extensions

Twitter API Integration for Preside

This extension allows you to configure multiple Twitter accounts in your Preside application, and to interact with the Twitter API.

Benefits

  • Custom rendering of timelines and individual tweets: tweets can be placed and formatted however desired
  • Speed of rendering: tweets are rendered as part of the page (and can be cached if desired), with no external requests to Twitter
  • Indexing: tweets can be indexed and searched both locally and by search engines
  • No tracking: because no 3rd-party widgets are being rendered by your page, no 3rd-party tracking is happening either

Documentation

Full documentation for installation and usage of this extension can be found on the project's wiki.
