Parameters

Parameters are useful when tracking where an user comes from. If the parameter is source=twitter, the url will link to http://www.fusionswift.com/?source=twitter. There are couple of tags that can be used inside the Parameter field.

  • %blogtitle% – title of the blog, provided as “title-of-the-blog”
  • %posttitle% – title of the post, provided as “title-of-the-post”
  • %date% – provided as yyyymmdd
  • %time% – provided as hhiiss

Tweet When Post Updated

There is an option to tweet when a post is updated. If this is enabled, it is recommended to use either %time% or %date% in the update tweet template, since it may result in a duplicate tweet.

New Tweet

The new tweet feature, which can be found at Tools -> New Tweet, allows you to tweet from right inside WordPress.

Planned features

  • Tweet to multiple twitter accounts
  • Include category in tweet

      That was most likely a temporary error with our server. It’s been working for a while now.
