MultiTwitter Module

*** If you like this extension PLEASE review / vote for it. Thanks!

For support please visit our forums.

Abivia's Multi-Twitter module lets you construct complex twitter searches, filter and edit the results, and display them the way you want. Multi-Twitter can perform multiple searches then merge the results into a single feed.

Other Twitter modules simply help you build a search query. Multi-Twitter doesn't. We let you use Twitter search syntax and add value by handling the search results in an intelligent manner.

NOTE: This module requires our (free) JTML plugin to be installed as well.

Full release history and parameter documentation is available on the extension page.

I don't comment much about extensions. This module is simply excelent! Simply to implement and very efective doing what is being said it will do. If this is the non-commercial version (it does enough and more for my blog), I would like to see what else can do the commercial version. Congratulation for your work, and thank you for providing free for the little guy such a handy tool.

I have been building Joomla sites for many years, and many of my sites have required twitter functionality. As such I have scoured the extensions directory for the best of the best, and MultiTwitter is my new favorite. Easily the top solution for advanced queries, and also stands up well against other simpler extensions for just displaying single user feeds.

The only thing I noticed is missing that other twitter modules I've used do, is having hashtags show up as links in the feed. If that functionality was added I would have everything I can think of wanting in one extension.

You'll notice that our most recent release supports hash tag links. Thanks for the suggestion!

The proof is in the pudding- this one has everything I needed, including a way to scrape @replies and get them to list. Be sure to read the author's brief page detailing what each field does. Install, publish, configure, and *poof* you are up and running. Highly recommended- only suggestion I would have is for the author to build in a few default stylings.

I was looking for a Twitter display module which can handle a more complex search, rather than just displaying the Tweets of @so-and-so. Well this one can. It's a pity I had to try and compare so many modules before I found this one. But that's not your fault ;-) Please keep up the good work. Maybe you can add some auto refresh and/or rotating to it in the future?

This is really great product! I have put it on my site and I can tell that it works perfectly and that can support most complex search strings with twitters search operators. Also Abivia Support is really outstanding. I didn't know how to do something and send request for skype. They come on line and fix everything within 10 minutes. Strongly recommend!

This is a really superb twitter display module. I have tried 5 or 6 others, and this offers by far the most versatile configuration options. The thing I like the most is how I can even set the format of the date. Well done developers - great job!

As a 'newbie' to Joomla I found this extension to do exactly what it says. Installs no problem and easy to set up, even for a newbie like me. Worked faultlessly first time with very little 'customisation' needed to fit in perfectly with my site.
Thank you very much for this superb, easy to use extension.

I spent hours and hours trying several twitter modules, and most of them were really buggy or unecessarily complex, or didn't include basic features like the date/time of your tweet. I was about to give up and then I found THIS module. It has everything I need, works great and is quick and easy to configure. Search no more, you've found the twitter mod you've been looking for!

I am a freelancer who administers a foundation's website. I researched a few Twitter modules and the finalists that I installed for testing were this one and jTweet. Though we do not utilize the multi-feed feature from MultiTwitter (you can show feeds from more than one Twitter account), I chose MultiTwitter because I found the ability to control the display of the information using CSS superior given my skill set.

I am a Joomla noob so I was flying through this process without a deep understanding of the infrastructure that drives Joomla nor any particular extension. But I am an experienced web coder so I figured if I could tweak the display with CSS and control the format of tweets coming in, I'd be fine.

Installation and setup were simple. I got the module running in no time, though I spent quite some time afterward customizing the CSS styles to integrate nicely with my site.

Then, suddenly, my tweets were not posting. It was as if I had tweaked myself out!! Well, I logged into forums and searched for answers. None for my exact issue. So I added my help beacon to the forum.

I got an email from the developer, Alan, shortly thereafter. Note that this was on 12/23 in the late afternoon when most people have turned off their phone ringer and headed to see relatives for the holidays. Not Alan.

Anyway, Alan was incredibly responsive, didn't treat me like an idiot (yes, I've had that kind of reply from developers who are sure it's just some noob screwing things up!) and solved my issue. He even updated his own code to help isolate and solve the issue. And he explained it in non-geek speak.

Last, I can say that from the other comments on the forums, it seems my Abivia MultiTwitter troubleshooting experience is not unique. I'll be back for more Abivia extensions, and I'll let my other clients know about it.

It is just what I needed, but It would be completely amazing if you can add pagination after certain amount of tweets!! That would be really great!

This is an issue with your PHP environment and is outside our control. Contact your hosting company or switch to another one.

Like the other reviewers of most of the Twitter extensions, I too was looking for the "right" extension. MultiTwitter, in my opinion, is definitely the best and most versatile one on the list. I would even say better then YOOtweet which is not listed here.

Setup is straight forward and even for a newbie like me, configuring css was a snap. Their forum has all the css tags you need to get its appearance to fit your needs.

I did make a few modifications to its layout by editing the jtml file to get it to look exactly the way I wanted but as far as functionality, it's the best!

Awesome module!

I've tried and tested atleast 10 different twitter feed mods, I specifically needed to display multiple twitter feeds.

Despite other modules talking a fair game, they seemed to falter.

Abivia twitter module works just great and is fast to load. The support is also fantastic. I only usually edit css but they helped me configure the css for this module so I got it laid out exactly how I want it.

Big thumbs up to this module and their team.

Setting up a local online newspaper, I've searched for an easy module to display results of the three local football (soccer respectively) clubs. The coaches send sms to different twitter accounts. Joining the three twitter accounts together and display the updates was my task. Searching and testing approx. 20 (!) modules, each and every one failed for different reasons - until I found Abivia Multi-Twitter together with the JTML plugin required.
+ easy to install
+ self-explaining backend
+ time format easy as php strftime()
+ many features
+ works instantly (don't forget the jtml plugin)
+ it's the best - forget the rest

I wanted a way to combine other specific feeds, twitter keyword search, and my own low-volume twitter feed into one timeline in a module related to the site topic. Excellent and easy to set up module (be sure to get and install the required plug-in as well).

Wish list: Twitter Account kill list (to curb spam), include the "- (search term)" documentation for open searches in the XML file so it pops up in the administration menu. Those are very minor quibbles. This is a solid, elegantly coded module.
