Both the Facebook and Twitter sidebars are great, except for the fact that they are very hard to make work together. I've tried to make this look nice for more than a week and I decided I was going to choose one or the other.. that's too bad because these are great modules!
Works like a charm. Got it working within 5 minutes. For people having issues, try disabling the jQuery option first like the author said :-) Also works great with responsive template so it looks fine on tablet and phone.
Thank you!
Thank you!
I'm using all Susnet extensions. (facebook, twitter and pintrest) All wonderful extensions, but the twitter module is giving problems with IE9. JQuery disabled. Have asked the developer twice for support or advise. Never got a response. That is bit disapointing. Nevertheless higly recommended.
Love them, albeit having a hard time finding support resources. Would be great if there was an active forum with problems and solutions. Last issue is whether or not I can open the Twitter links in a new tab/window; have been unable to figure it out or find info about it. Still, great product.
The way this twitter extension looks: absolutely fantastic; The sidebar funtion is beautiful, but with older browsers sometimes the tweets do not load. This seems random: meaning sometimes ok sometimes not ok. And just yesterday (beware I have been using this extension for about four months now, to my great satisfaction) I experienced some problems with the loading of my webpages. I really do not know if this had to do with a generic twitter server problem or with this extension. But I do know that unpublishing the extension speeded up my website loading enormously. But to be honest I like the looks of this extension so much that I enabled the extension again today, and speed of loading pages looks ok again. So, I do not know what is causing the loading problems. Will update the review in a few months time. My recommendation: just try if it works for you.

Very occasionally the module might be slow, this is purely down to Twitter (server issues or high traffic). You would experience the same issues with any Twitter module/widget/plugin, not a lot we can do about that. The Susnet module is very lightweight and wouldn't have any impact on loading times.
Thanks for the review, 3 stars was a little bit mean though ;)
Slick module but unfortunately doesn't work with IE6, for corporation websites who are forced to use this backdated version the module statically places itself depending on where your module position is. This can scramble the website. If it could have IE6 support it would be great, otherwise supply the option to terminate the script if IE6 is used by the visitor.
Easy to install, to configure and to use. Very effective for all websites. An example for many extension developers. Susnet is top.
Quickly installed and usefully small in real estate terms.
Paul responded really quickly to a problem I thought I had. Turns out there was no problem!
Works really well and the support is superb.
