Overview

This product provides a twitter action to be used with content rules.

Prerequisites

This product depends on collective.twitter.accounts.

Usage

Just add this product to your buildout, and you should get the action to be used in the content rules. Optionaly, you can specify a separate URL to be used as the beginning of the link.

Example

• Go to the content rules, and add the “Tweet new content’s title and url”.

• If you have a separate site for your public site, you can specify it in the “separate host” field. example: your public site is http://my-site.com/ and your editing one is http://another-host:8080/Plone and you want tweets to use the public host, specify it here.
