in Orchard Modules

This project is a orchard cms module created to allow you display of your twitter timeline in a way that allows you to style the feed on your site. Also this module could be a starting point for developers to use the registering of twitter accounts in their modules. There are two parts to this:

  1. The Admin interface to control the twitter accounts available to each widget
  2. The Feed Widget

The Admin Interface

This interface allows the registration of twitter accounts within orchard. These accounts can then be attached to widgets that show the feed information. The feed widget in this module serves as an example of what can be achieved.

The Feed Widget

The Feed widget can show multiple accounts aggregated into one feed.

Setup

  1. Create an account on dev.twitter.com
  2. Enter the consumer key and secret in the twitter settings page in your orchard site.
  3. Add Accounts via the Twitter menu in your orchard site.
  4. Add a Twitter widget to the page and select the accounts and settings that are right for you.
