Setting Up Twitter Returns a 403 Error. #361

Open orribu opened 3 years ago

orribu commented 3 years ago

Hello, I've been looking around for solutions to this issue for a little bit. I took a look at #327 and I couldn't quite locate the "Redirect" functionality mentioned in the solution.

I've set up the API, added my website (https://twistedfates.net/) as the callback, set the permissions to read/write, and checked that the keys matched up. So far, everything checks out. My app on Twitter has both v1.1 and v2 endpoint access. I've also enabled three-legged OAuth access. Could I be doing something wrong?

Environment

Webcomic Version 5.0.6 Wordpress Version 5.7.1 PHP Version 7.3.27

I'm 99.9% sure that the Twitter API used in Webcomic has not been updated and thus no longer able to function. Given there are so many alternatives for publishing to social networks, some of which are often found in must have or commonly used plugins (such as Jetpack), there wasn't much need to keep up with Twitter's continuous need to update their API.

Now, again I could be wrong on this as it has been ages since I spoke to Mike on the matter.

Sounds right -- I just use the SNAP plugin for all my crossposting.

Oooh thanks for the input, everyone! That sucks--I guess it makes sense though!
