Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Call api.GetUserTimeline on a user that has at least one retweet.
2. List the .text of the statuses returned.
3. Retweets on the timeline are missing from the returned timeline, yet are 
visible on the twitter webpage.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The complete user's timeline, as seen on the user's twitter profile webpage
Instead, the user's timeline is missing tweets that are retweets.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
python-twitter 0.6 on FreeBSD 8 RC1

Please provide any additional information below.

Can you please verify that the messages are included in the direct HTTP api 
call?

For example, check this URL (replacing 'ev' with the user in question):

  http://twitter.com/users/show/ev.json

It might be the case that the API is not returning all of the data that appears 
on the 
twitter.com website.

This is looking more and more to be a twitter problem - they are not including 
retweets 
in the timeline returned to api calls. I'm not 100% sure though.
