Setting up a profile widget

To set up the profile widget to display on every page in Kotti on the right hand side, add kotti_twitter.include_profile_widget to the kotti.includes setting in your Paste Deploy config:

kotti.includes = kotti_twitter.include_profile_widget

To set the name of the user for which the widget is shown, set the kotti_twitter.profile_widget.user variable. An example with some other variables:

kotti.includes = kotti_twitter.include_profile_widget
kotti_twitter.profile_widget.user = dnouri
kotti_twitter.profile_widget.loop = true
kotti_twitter.profile_widget.tweets_links = #00ff00

Note that these settings have to be in your [app:Kotti] section.

Setting up a search widget

The search widget is very similar to the profile widget, but instead of a user, it expects a search. An example configuration:

kotti.includes = kotti_twitter.include_search_widget
kotti_twitter.search_widget.search = #pylons #pyramid
kotti_twitter.search_widget.title = Pylons Project news
