Account name ("Janus WWI" -> "Janus Worldwide")

I tried to deinstall the module from my site (janusww.com) and install back, but now I cannot add new Tweet Dusplay Back modules (it's not listed) although the module is listed and activated on module uninstall page.

You should just need to change the account name in the module's settings and clear the module's cache (on the Admin menu, go to Site > Maintenance

Clear Cache).

If there isn't a module listed in the Module Manager's grid view, click the New button to add a new one. If one isn't listed there, then uninstall the module from the Extension Manager and try installing it again. I don't know why it wouldn't show up in the Module Manager, but alas, Joomla! has enough quirks to make anyone raise an eyebrow...

Thank you for your advise! Sure, I did change the account name in the module's settings and cleared the module's cache. But nothing changed, PHP error still was there.

What confused me was the fact that the module could be added to the module grid manually. It appears there automatically upon installing.

So I solved the issue by reinstalling the modue and using its instance that was autocreated in the "right" position.
