And of course, Twitter’s changes in policies are my fault. Good to know.
Regardless, that’s not really the issue: they’re actually eliminating by Elevated and Essential access types, and the Basic type will *probably* continue to support WP to Twitter, but their documentation about it is so incomplete that I honestly have no idea.
Hi ideia internet (@lutjebroeker) and Joe Dolson,
just letting you know that there is no need to pay for access to twitter – I just connected one of my websites to Twitter via a new app that I just created for WP to Twitter, and had no problems – I got the app created, got the secret keys, etc etc and was able to connect the WP to Twitter plugin in under 5 minutes. I have also done a successful test (.. .I published a new page, which was then automatically also sent to our Twitter page), so I can confirm that everything works.
I therefore think you may have done something wrong when applying / submitting your app or details (…not hard to do – they can be very confusing).
If you want to give it another go then maybe try reading this article, which I found useful when creating my Twitter app – https://smashballoon.com/doc/create-your-own-twitter-app/ – , and then maybe try it again?
I hope this helps you.
Cheers, Karen

Always nice to promote another twitter plugin like that and place a 5 star rating 7 days later.
Got it working by connecting to twitter with “Revive Old Posts” and got the api ect from the database. It worked for a while.
But with the latstest update of wordpress all the “Basic settings” are empty and Tweets are not send!

Not sure what you are implying ideia internet (@lutjebroeker), but I left a 5 star rating & review because I have used this plugin for some 5+ years without any problems and my review was very overdue (so my sincere apologies to the developer for taking so long…) but I didn’t promote any other twitter plugin, I merely gave you a link to a useful article that I had used in order to create a new twitter app for this plugin…. I was just trying to help you, and any other users who may be facing the same problem.
Have a nice day,
Regards Karen
