[Plugin: Twitter Widget Pro] Tweet count includes retweets even when retweets are not included

    The follow up to the “Can’t remove include retweets” issue:

    When you select how many tweets you want to display, the count includes the retweets even if you set them to not be included.

    That is, if I want to display the last four tweets made from a twitter account, but the latest four items on the account is one tweet and three retweets, the Twitter Widget shows only one tweet. And so on.

    (Using 2.3.11)

    Unfortunately that’s how the Twitter API works (read the “count” parameter). I know, it’s stupid. At some point I’m going to have to code around it on my end, but currently the only good way to do that is to request a lot more tweets than you actually need and that causes a lot of unneeded overhead.

    Ah, too bad. Thanks anyway.
