I was so relieved to find this after Twitter changes. Works as it should. Thank you for a great plugin.

I had been using WP to Twitter until some drug addict took over ex-Twitter. Not only did he name it that way but he also disconnected me from it. I have been having such difficulties since then as I had to ex-tweet manually. Then I found a new version. The developer says that it requires WP 6.0 or later, but I installed it on my WordPress 4.9.24 anyway. Oh my dog! It works all right. Now I can get back to ex-Twitter. I am so happy because I will never go beyond 4.9.x. I must add that the developer’s document also helped significantly.

It does not work because OAuth 2.0 Authentication is required when I make up a new twitter project or edit default project . Any way I tried to post then this error come up. “403: Client Forbidden: When authenticating requests to the Twitter API v2 endpoints, you must use keys and tokens from a Twitter developer App that is attached to a Project. You can create a project via the developer portal.” I do not know when this x developer “User authentication settings” changed. Thank you.

My review is no longer accurate, since it was written after a possible announcement of the end of support for this plugin. To this day, seeing it upgrade to “Xposter” (due to the platform name change), I can only be more than grateful. I am not lying when I say that it is the oldest plugin that I have in my installation of more than 12 years, and the one that I have seen applied the most love and work in all these years. Others have given up for less. Joe proves to be passionate about his work and his creation.
The plugin is simple and does just what it’s supposed to do. This last month I have only tried a couple of alternatives, which worked, but did not have basic functions; it’s clear that this plugin is based on the user’s real needs, not just posting to a social network. Other alternatives left important issues unresolved.
In addition, it has a PRO version that really transforms it into a totally different tool, since it expands its possibilities far beyond its basic use of sharing your posts. Among the most basic functions of the PRO version, you have the possibility of scheduling posts, delaying their sharing time, refloating old ones… they are essential options to be able to give more life to your content. In short, it is a real added value to a paid version.
So I have changed the content of this review, but the title of the post, however, does not need to be changed: THANKS FOR SO MUCH, Joe Dolson!!!
ORIGINAL POST:
Over a decade, I’ve had minor issues a couple of times with this plugin. In the support forums you find that this does not work, that if you do not post images, etc… problems that were not related to the plugin, but to the knowledge of the user or problems with his WordPress site configuration.
As of today, however, the plugin doesn’t work due to recent radical changes made by Twitter, and it looks like it won’t be updated anymore, according to what the creator of the plugin said.
Why rate it 5 stars? Well, because its creator deserves no less, for all the effort and dedication, and the few times he will have received thanks for creating the simplest and most effective solution for something as simple as sending a WordPress post to Twitter. For me, it’s the best plugin I’ve ever had installed on my WordPress.
Thank you very much for so much Joe Dolson, I hope you have success in all your current and future projects <3

This plugin is really great, I have used it for years (free version) without any problems – you just need to be careful to configure the settings so as not to send too many tweets and violate Twitters’ terms (….so probably best to disable the option to tweet when editing a post or page) but that also applies to any Twitter plugin.
Thank you Joseph C. Dolson for this very useful and well built plugin and for all your hard work.

Last Tweet: (No post) ? 403 Forbidden: The request is understood, but has been refused by Twitter. (Error Code: 453: You currently have Essential access which includes access to Twitter API v2 endpoints only. If you need access to this endpoint, you’ll need to apply for Elevated access via the Developer Portal.
In simple words, You need to pay Twitter 100 us$ a month.

It works well enough, but the basic, free version does not post images to Twitter. In 2022, that’s not the sort of functionality that can be upgraded to. Useless unless you pay.

Follow the instructions provided by the app, and:

I installed this plugin (free version) as a trial and was happy with the results until I started using Broken Link Checker to resolve dead links on the site.
Every time I corrected a link it Tweeted. I must make it absolutely clear here this was NOT the fault of WP to Twitter.
Obviously at the time I did not know that so I contacted Joe for support. He graciously assisted me despite that fact that it was not a paid version and I had not at that time donated. I have to say we were both scratching our heads. Joe could find nothing wrong and I had an error. Eventually Joe surmised that by unchecking the ‘Disable post modified date change when link is edited’ checkbox in Broken Link Checker it might cure the problem, his reasoning being ‘I’m thinking it could be that since the post modified date isn’t being changed, it’s using the same post modified date on the post that was already in place. If that post modified date is within 10 seconds of the publication date, then that will result in the post being treated as a new post.’
I unchecked the box and no more erroneous Tweets.
Joe put much head-scratching into this as he could not reproduce that error at his end so I thank him for his time, effort and frustration and congratulate him on coming up with the solution to a problem that was not, ultimately, of his making.
Absolutely brilliant support and the plugin does exactly what it says on the tin!

The plugin works as described. What I really like is the ability to define different templates for the individual post-types. That’s a core functionality I need. I miss the auto-tweet. I understodd it should do it, but it doesn’t. So you have to manually copy the tweet template into the tweet field and tweet it by clicking a button after publishing the post. This is a workaround I can live with but auto tweeting as promised would of course be good and earn the plugin the fifth star.

Used to work great. Does not work properly with Gutenberg editor though. i.e. tags no longer get tweeted – which was why I used this plugin. Since Gutenberg editor became default for WordPress this makes the plugin unusable.
It now can only do a basic tweet with title and link – like many other plugins already do.
Hesitant to try Pro if the Basic features are broken.

Followed the install video, but it just doesn’t do what it should.

I’ve tried using WP to Twitter on multiple sites, following all the instructions and the auto-Tweet for new posts just doesn’t work.
I have to manually Tweet every post, which is really not ideal with multiple authors.
Looking for a different app to use now.

This is superior to Jetpack by WordPress.com.

I started using this plugin some time back and fell in love with it. If you’re on Twitter, this plugin should be a no-brainer.
I was so impressed with the free version that I ordered PRO. Couldn’t be happier with it, and the support Joe Dolson has provided. I had cause to contact him today and received a response in almost no time.
Highly recommend getting this, and then getting the PRO version. Great stuff!

Hi,
Excellent plugin, excellent support and easy to use. Congratulations and thanks for your great work.

Slick plugin which works well ‘out of the box’ but benefits from being very customisable if you wish. Pro version is worth it to enable tweeting images and scheduling. Had to use support a couple of times and Joe’s responses were always quick and very useful.

I’ve used this plugin for quite awhile, but can no longer use it because when a Tweet is sent with a new post, Twitter locks my account for automation.

I’ve tried every plugin for this under the sun, and the only complaint I’ve had since getting this plugin, and the pro add-on, is that it only does Twitter. because it does Twitter perfectly. Traffic and brand recognition are up because of this plugin, and my life is a lot easier, not having to manually share posts with multiple Twitter accounts every time.
I did create one issue, which was totally not a normal situation, that caused a glitch for the few minutes before I corrected my mistake (server/DNS level stuff, not WP or this plugin), and the author has been superb about it. Support was quick and very in-depth.
Overall, I’m just waiting for Joe to get this going for Facebook pages, Google + pages, LinkedIn, etc. so I can get those too.
Plugin handles publish tweets and auto-re-posting of recent and old posts to Twitter. Scheduling never misses a beat, options are clear and concise, includes templating so my authors don’t have to learn anything to get the right tweets out with each post, and includes link shortening compatibility. Just a great job.

It wouldn’t tweet the posts. I think the plugin needs to be updated for Twitter’s current specs.

The free version is very simple to setup. I’ve never had any problems with this plugin; it does its job. Based on the superior support I received from Joe, I would buy the Pro version for future sites.

BEWARE !! This plugin appears to be now piggybacking another plugin called freemium, which is a “monetization” plugin. The current release bricked one of our client’s sites, due to an external blocking call that took 8+ seconds on EVERY page. I’d avoid any plugin that attempts to piggyback another plugin and install it without your consent.

This plugin was functioning fine on our website for well over a year. With the most recent update, there is a notification to “Opt In” to provide data. NEITHER OPTION WORKS – i.e., you cannot opt in, you cannot skip. On top of this, it seems to be requiring a TON of resources to complete this process and has been crashing our database as a result. Unfortunately, we have decided to remove this plugin as a result. This plugin was GREAT for auto-updating a Twitter feed with posts. Hopefully they will address the bugs created with the last update.

Simple, straightforward configuration. Easy to set up tweet format. This is how all wp-plugins should work.

When i looked for first time the negative reviews, i thought “great, another crappy plugin”.
When i read them, i just installed the wp to Twitter and never regret it.
It’s amazing how some useless negative reviews helps you to decide what is the best.
Thanks Joe for this great plugin

WP to Twitter (Pro) is a great plugin for tweeting a post automatically and without thinking about it. The great variety of options is great to style a tweet the way you really want it. The support of YourLS is also great to create your own shortlinks on the fly.
And last but not least: The support is fast and helpful.
