plugin is not working

Seeing exactly the same thing.

Perhaps the reason is: https://dev.twitter.com/discussions/24239
Restricting api.twitter.com to SSL/TLS traffic

Ok it is.

I have just change all api-URLs tp https and now it’s working.

Workaround till an update is comming:

edit the wp-twitter/modules/p1/oauth-twitter.php file an add an s to the http(s):// URLS:

define( ….. ‘https://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token’ );
define( ….. ‘https://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token’ );
define( ….. ‘https://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize’ );
define( ….. ‘https://twitter.com/’ );

And

$url = ‘https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/update.json’;

in the update function.

version 4.2
*Fix [Restricting api.twitter.com to SSL/TLS traffic]

Sadly not working on version 3.5.1 as the whole of the authentication box is missing from the settings page.

The error shown is:
‘Not able to validate access to account, Twitter is currently unavailable. Try checking again in a couple of minutes.’
