Hi Matt We are having the same problem with counts not updating on our site. We've tested with several people tweeting the same link (using the tweet button), and still the count shows 0. The page in question is http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=10670662 http://tw

Hi Matt Pursuant to my last post, I checked what the tweet button was sending and what it was getting back from the count api http://urls.api.twitter.com/1/urls/ count.json?url=http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/arti

Hi Jonathan, The counting of URLs like yours will count correctly for Tweets from now on. Thanks for letting us know about the problems you were having so we could track the bug down and fix it. Best, Matt On Aug 24, 6:30 pm, Jonathan Strauss wrote: > Ah, canonicalization. Thanks Matt. > > As y

Ah, canonicalization. Thanks Matt. As you probably know, those URL parameters (other than awesm=) are standard Google Analytics tracking parameters. So, it's something that should probably be handled better by the counter code. But at least we now know the root cause. Thanks, -jonathan On Aug 24

Hi Jonathan, The count we use is completely separate to search so no inference should be drawn from there. As well as that the search index is only 5 or so days now so anything Tweeted before then won't be found. When counting URLs we count the final destination of a shortURL so it doesn't matter

Matt, I've been using data-counturl from the start and still seeing 0 counts. Here is the source for the button on http://blog.snowballfactory.com/2010/08/15/tweet-button-with-shortening-for-wordpress/ which is showing 0 tweets: http://twitter.com/share"; class="twitter-share-button" data- url="h

Hey everyone, This is a repeat of a message on another thread. I've updated the Tweet Button docs today with information which I hope will answer a number of your questions. In particular the example about using a short URL with the parameter data-counturl should help those of you whose counts ar

Just tried something else, I click on a tweet containing one of my short urls this actually redirects to http://www.libdemvoice.org/?p=20818&utm_source=tweet&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=twitter by setting data-counturl="http://www.libdemvoice.org/?p=20818"; it finally counts all the posts. If

I don't give a damn about bit.ly or t.co. I just want people to a) tweet with my own shortlink, and b) display the number of people using that shortlink. I'm not expecting twitter to workout that http://ldv.org.uk/20680 is a shortlink for http://www.libdemvoice.org/office-of-the-public-guardian-fin

I'm pretty sure they're only indexing a subset of redirect links for the count at this point. So, the 4 or 5 being counted are probably ones that were shared with t.co or bit.ly. -jonathan -- Jonathan Strauss, Co-Founder http://snowballfactory.com Campaign tracking for social media - http://awe.

I am seeing the issue with awe.sm links. It seems unlikely, but my theory is that Twitter isn't unwrapping *all* redirect links to attribute to the count, only those on certain domains. See: http://backtweets.com/search?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fextend%2Fplugins%2Ftweet-button-with-shortening
