Auto Post to Twitter From Wordpress?

7 replies
Is there any plugin that automatically updates your Twitter status with every blog post?

I have been searching for one, but I haven't found any that work.

If there aren't any plugins, are there any sites where you could submit your blog RSS and then it would auto tweet the post title with a link back?

Thanks for the help!

    How you doing Twigman.

    Here is a post I found that gives you lots of different options. Let me know which plugin you used.

    I send my info from WP to Facebook then to Twitter and from Twitter to Facebook back to WP.

    What you want is a plugin called "Twitter Tools". Even if you're autoblogging, it will update your Twitter with every post. It also comes with a couple other plugins that will shorten your links to bit.ly and enables you to add hashtags to every post.

    It's also free. I've been using it for years and it is exactly what you're looking for.

      I have Twitter Tools installed, but it doesn't seem to be working for me

    I personally use WP Syndicator for that, but it is a paid plugin though (although I recommend you invest in that, it really has helped me with a few of my sites that didn't get good ranking before). Before this plugin I used Tweetable (WordPress › Tweetable « WordPress Plugins) or WP To Twitter (WordPress › WP to Twitter « WordPress Plugins)

      I use Twitter Tools on nearly every website I make. It does exactly what you're looking for. However, be sure you get the most recent version, because it's a bit more complicated to set up than it used to be. In the past, you could just input your Twitter user name and password and it would work. Now, you have to create a Twitter app for your website (the plugin gives you the link to do this), plug in two consumer API keys and two token access API keys, and THEN you can set up the plugin to do what you want it to do. Also, whatever email you give to Twitter when setting up your account, be sure to go to it and o[en the confirmation message from Twitter to confirm your account, or your blog posts won't be automatically posted.

        Ya, I went through all of those steps. I don't know why it doesn't work. O well. Tweetable is working for me now.


        Thanks everyone for the help.
