Adds a just_a_tweet<\/code> function and short code that allows you to display only \nthe most recent Tweet from a Twitter feed.<\/p>\n\n

This came about because I wanted a way to display my most recent tweet in the \nheader of my site. Looking through dozens of Twitter plugins I couldn't find\none that just got the most recent tweet without too much extraneous HTML and\nalso cached the request. This function does both.<\/p>\n\n

For more info, visit Nutt.net<\/a> or\nmy Twitter feed<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload just-a-tweet<\/code> to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n
  3. Place <?php just_a_tweet('username'); ?><\/code> in your templates<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

    The function just_a_tweet<\/code> takes up to 4 parameters<\/p>\n\n

    $twitterUser - Required - The name of the Twitter user you want to request<\/p>\n\n

    $cacheAge - Optional - Number of minutes after which the cache is considered stale. Defaults to 5<\/p>\n\n

    $forceRefresh - Optional - If true then the cache is not used, although it is\nstill filled. Defaults to false<\/p>\n\n

    $echo - Optional - Whether the function should also echo out the HTML built. Either\nway the HTML is returned. Defaults to true<\/p>\n\n

    Using the shortcode<\/h4>\n\n

    There is also a shortcode just_a_tweet that you can use inside your posts and pages.<\/p>\n\n

    [ just_a_tweet twitteruser=yourtwitter ] will pull the most recent tweet from \nwhatever Twitter account you pass as yourtwitter<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n
