Tweet Module how to display a list of tweet

Is it possible to display a list of tweet into a Tweet module of a region layout?

You need to configure the Twitter module per the instructions in the CMS Post Installation Guide.

You can then use that to search for the tweets you want to show and display them in a region.

thanks, I done, but in a region I dsiplay only one tweet.

I have 10 for number of tweet in general options.

Then either your search returns only one result, or you don’t have any transition defined so it won’t loop through.

You really need to explain what you’ve done already so we can see and help you - otherwise there’s going to be alot of guess work on our part as to how you’ve configured the media item.

Note also that the twitter search API that we use returns only recent results. Older tweets won’t show.

I have this setting:

Duration: 60
Type: Mix
Distance: 0
Count: 10
Aspect: [User] [Date] [Tweet]
Effect: slide
Speed:100
Update interval: 2 minuts

Thanks a lot.

I still can’t help I’m afraid.

I have no idea what you’re searching for, and there isn’t an effect called Slide.

I need to know exactly how you’ve configured the media item. Putting in what you’ve given me with my own search term works perfectly, so I would guess that your term only brings a single result.

Sorry, my xibo use it language and my english is not perfect.

I’ve set the effect as “Tile Slide” and the “Speed” (Velocità) is 100.
The search term is #BarackObama and the other setting are:

The aspect is:

  • [User]
  • [Date]
  • [Tweet]

If I duplicate the aspect as:

  • [User]
  • [Date]
  • [Tweet]
  • [User]
  • [Date]
  • [Tweet]
    Xibo display the same twitter message two time

From the Appearance (aspect) tab, select template “Tweet text only” and untick “Override the template”

You then get.

Which seems to be right to me.

The template is for a single tweet only. If you put multiple fields the same in, then Xibo will indeed duplicate it as you’ve seen.

The solution is to override the twitter.module.php?

Thanks a lot!

Absolutely not?!

You don’t need to change any code. Please can you change the appearance back to one of the pre-defined templates and make sure that works, before making your own.

Using the template “tweet text only” and “Override the template” uncheked, it work fine and is displayed one tweet only.
If I want to dipslay two tweets, I chek the"Override the template" and I set:
[Tweet]
[Tweet]

but Xibo displays two identical tweet.
Is it normal?

Yes that’s normal. The template is for a single instance, so if you put the placeholder twice you’ll get the text twice.
