Yeah, I'm with you. Mine does the same - but the '0' box just doesn't reflect the number of tweets Odd...I hit the "0" next to the Tweet box and it opened a window to Twitter but gave me a "no real time results" message...went back to the thread I had Tweeted, and it now displays "1"...did a refresh, and it went back to "0"...!

I just looked at mine and the Tweets are not showing, even though right after "Tweeting" it showed 1 on each post I Tweeted.

Well, not meaning to be disrespectful of Rick's hard work but after a few days of trying this I've decided to disable it and go back to having my addthis.com buttons displayed in the post. At least this way I can keep track of its usage throughout the whole site. Sorry Rick.

Just checked my Twitter account and the Tweet is still showing, just not reflecting on my web page.

Likewise. I'm sure this is just an oversight that may be quickly remedied.

Even if the counter doesn't work, it saves me a step or two, as I was doing the same thing manually before...so it's still a step forward!

Looking into this now. I've seen a few bug reports with counts not incrementing with the new tweet api button. If you can assist, please tweet this topic: https://www.ubbcentral.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/238823Then post here if you do so we can get an idea of how many tweets there have been and do a bit of debugging. We've added a couple parameters they suggest such as the tweet-counturl, so we'll see if that has any effect.

Just something I noticed, and it may be correct, but when you hit the Tweet number it opens the following url:
twitter.com/#search?q=http%3A//www.ubbcentral.com/forums/ubbthreads.php%3Fubb%3Dshowflat%26Number%3D238823 OR http%3A//www.ubbcentral.com/forums/ubbthreads.php
The "OR" in the middle + the 2 url's look odd...and then you get "No real-time results for...[above url]?

Ok, I know there is a cache they work with and there is no set time that it updates. So will be keeping an eye on it.

So apparently, the api has some issues with items that can have multiple pages and different urls to each page, even when the url is forced to the main topic/post. Seems like that is why most that have this already only have it on the main forum page and not on individual topics.
Not sure if they will expand on this to allow for cases like forums, but I've inquired.

The '0' box next to the Tweet button... Until this is sorted, how can I remove the '0' box?

About line 137 of templates/default/showflat.tpl you'll see the line for the tweet button:
<a href="http://twitter.com/share?url={$facebookURL}&via={$config.YOUR_TWITTER}" class="twitter-share-button" data-related="Mindraven">Tweet</a>
Change that to:
<a href="http://twitter.com/share?url={$facebookURL}&via={$config.YOUR_TWITTER}" class="twitter-share-button" data-related="Mindraven" data-count="none">Tweet</a>

Is there any way to track how many times my topics have been liked or tweeted (other than visiting each individual topic?)

I don't know if it's been reported, but the Facebook "Like" button seems to be broken. It's not working here or on my 2 sites...Hmmm. Tweet seems to still be working.

How do I change the "recommends you follow: Mindraven Hosting" in the twitter pop up box. How about in "Control Panel/Display Options/Topic Display Options/Your Twitter Account". You just input your Twitter account name and it will then show up as being "Tweeted" from your forum.

@ gliderdad that worked perfectly. I modified it to our twitter account. Maybe the option to recommend users to follow should be added in the next version.
@ GregK, the page I was referring to is the one that is after you tweet a page. It is in the pop-up window. Thanks

I just checked and nothing like that comes up on my site. Every reference is to Truckers Road, as it should be.

In the latest update (7.5.6pl), which files are changed? In the install/UPGRADE_changes.txt are the same files noted as in version 7.5.6. Could you please give a list of updated files because I have a large number of files that are modded, and I don't want to edit/mod them all again.

That's what I downloaded originally. If you download the patch: ubbthreads-7-5-5p1 you will see the changed files. Well, I'm assuming that's correct as it is the latest patch available.Edit: I just noticed that the file dates in the 7-5-5p1 folder are dated 23 sept - so I guess it's the correct file to use.Strike that - whatever files are downloaded - they get stamped with todays date - don't they?

Shouldn't the patch be renamed to 7-5-6p1 ? there is a ubbthreads-7-5-6p1 there in the list in the members area download -- the order on the right is kinda not ordered with most recent version on top.. so the patch is 4th down maybe Brooks can reorder?
