VentureWeb Drupal Twitter Module - Simple Tweet
It has been some time since I have written a Venture Blog post. In recent months, setting up Drupal sites with the Twitter module has been a bit tricky. The Twitter module is great, but for a website that only needs Tweets from one Twitter account, it is a bit too heavy. To get around using the Twitter module, I simply put some custom php code in a block and, "viola." I approached Oliver Walker, the Ventureweb Drupal Wizard, with this simplified process and Olly worked his coding magic to produce a really lean module for us here at Ventureweb to use.
I want to release this to the Drupal community but, because there is already a Twitter module, there will be a few more hoops to jump though to release it. Drupal does not want any module duplication, as there is already that problem with various slideshow modules. Here is a link to my posting on Drupal.org in relation to this module: http://drupal.org/node/702984 In the comments on the above link there will be a link to the Simple Tweet Module.
Enjoy.
