Twitter not working (RESOLVED)

I have in the settings select that Twitter will publish the results from World Community Grid. However, the last weeks there have been no publishing on Twitter. Is this feauture broken?

Re: Twitter not working

I know, I just made my first gold badge and expected it to be shared.. but nothing! How can I do this manually perhaps cause I'm actually proud of getting there :)

Re: Twitter not working

Ormas... congratulations on your gold FAAH. Not sure if you have done it, but you can also advertise your FAAH accomplishments in this forum: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread_thread,26230
As for Twitter... well, let's say I'm not a Twitter fanatic, so I can't help you there (sorry sad

). What I do is copy the badge icon and paste it at the bottom of my emails (if that's any help)

Re: Twitter not working

Hi all,

Thank you for your patience...this has been fixed. The issue was a change in the Twitter API - specifically they moved the URL that we connect to to post the messages.

Thank you Erika.
How can we tweet the badge now we received, while the automatic twitter feed was disabled? I only got "new badges" selected, but now I can't share it :(

Hello Ormas,

You could manually tweet it. Here is some sample verbiage: "I earned a XXXX badge by donating XXX days of cpu time to XXXXXXXX at WCG. #wcgrid

Thanks!
