Extras
From any portlet, you can:
Click on a “#” starting word (hashtag) to go to Twitter and get further results
Click on an “@” starting word (usernames) to go to the user profile in Twitter.
Installation
To enable this product in a buildout-based installation:
Edit your buildout.cfg and add collective.twitter.portlets to the list of eggs to install
[buildout] ... eggs = collective.twitter.portlets
You may need to extend a five.grok known good set (KGS) to make sure that you get the right versions of the packages that make up five.grok
[buildout] ... extends = http://good-py.appspot.com/release/five.grok/1.2.0-1
After updating the configuration you need to run ‘’bin/buildout’’, which will take care of updating your system.
Go to the ‘Site Setup’ page in a Plone site and click on the ‘Add-ons’ link.
Check the box next to ‘’collective.twitter.portlets’’ and click the ‘Activate’ button.
Note: You may have to empty your browser cache and save your resource registries in order to see the effects of the product installation.
