[twitter-dev] OAuth URL to Sign User Out
Is there a URL to send a user to to sign them out of Twitter and prompt for a new username? I want to be able to, if the user is logged into the wrong Twitter account, with one click on my site, log them out of Twitter and prompt them to re-auth (using OAuth) with a new Twitter username. Is this possible? @Jesse

[twitter-dev] Re: OAuth URL to Sign User Out
Hi Abraham, That is pretty handy to know, does account/end_session not do a similar thing? It would be good to know if so because I authenticate using oauth on twollo and people do have multiple accounts and end_session is something I was going to use on logout of twollo.

[twitter-dev] Bug: RSS/xml alternate links on public profiles show uninterpreted @user.id and current_user.id
I'm not sure when this started (likely within a few days), but we just
noticed the link rel=alternate/ links have been rendering
incorrectly on all public twitter profiles.
They literally appear as uninterpreted ruby string escape sequences:
link rel=alternate href=/statuses/user_timeline/#
{...@user.id}.rss title=Loquatmusic's Updates type=application/rss
+xml /
link rel=alternate href=/favorites/#{current_user.id}.rss
title=Loquatmusic's Favorites type=application/rss+xml /
The timeline RSS can still be scraped from the in-page link (a href
class=xref rss profile-rss), but hopefully they'll fix this soon.

[twitter-dev] Search not returning all updates
I was missing some results in my API search, so I tried it on the twitter web site (http://search.twitter.com) and I'm having the same problems. I cannot find tweets from certain users, but can find from others. For example an update about the Hamptoms and another about Rome at http://twitter.com/drenert I tried various searches: Wondering what the Hamptons Hamptons #Rome #localyte localyte No luck with any. I can see his profile, so I know it's not a private account. Can anyone help me or tell me what I'm missing? Thanks! Andy
[twitter-dev] OAuth Callback dilemma

[twitter-dev] Re: OAuth Callback dilemma
Why are you renewing tokens? You can add some logic to your callback page to check if the user was already added to your account. If so just follow the renew process.

[twitter-dev] Stumped by Failed to validate oauth signature or token
I have seen several posts but I don't understand the answers :( I'm
fairly new to all this so I apologize if I'm missing something
obvious.
Using twitterOAuth from https://docs.google.com/View?docID=dcf2dzzs_2339fzbfsf4
I manage to grab and save the access tokens oauth_token as $user_token
and oauth_token_secret as $user_secret and can use them to
successfully call verify_credentials.xml
However if I try make a second call it doesn't work, for example:-
$msg = 'test';
$twitter = new TwitterOAuth($consumer_key, $consumer_secret,
$user_token, $user_secret);
$xml_string = $twitter-OAuthRequest('https://twitter.com/statuses/
update.xml', array('status' = $msg), 'POST');
Returns Failed to validate oauth signature or token.
Any ideas what I can do to make this work?
Thanks,
Martyn
[twitter-dev] Re: Stumped by Failed to validate oauth signature or token
Is it possible that one or more of the tokens are getting overwritten or
lost in the process?

[twitter-dev] Twitter auth problem?
Hello. I have a webapp that has been working perfectly and posting on users accounts just like it is supposed to. It has been working fine up until now. Now when it goes to update a users status it says could not authenticate you. I know that it doesn't have anything to do with the code because it can successfully post on some users accounts. I ran the verifyCredentials thing on all user accounts and all of them have come back valid. So why would the update status function only be working for some users now when it has worked perfectly for everyone in the past? Any help is much appreciated Thanks, Bryan
