jTweet v1.1

jTweet is our very popular free twitter module for Joomla. Its based on the sea of clouds. The jTweet script has a good range of options to help you to personalise your twitter stream making it a flexible and stylish option for integrating your tweets into your site.

You can see an example of the jTweet script on the front page slider of the Grid demo site. Here is a quick overview of some of the features available for this module but please check the parameter settings below for a more detailed explanation.

• Set the number of tweets to display
• Choose whether to display your avatar or not.
• Assign a funky twitter icon to the first tweet in your stream.
• Select whether to display just your tweets or all tweets related to a particular topic
• Select auto join phrases according to the nature of your tweet eg specific intro text for replies, verbs, replying to tweets and more.
• Set the text to appear while the tweets loads.
• Filter your own tweets via keywords. eg only display tweets that contain the word "joomla".
• Control the follow me text at the bottom of the module.

jTweet Styling

Here are some screen shots of the different styling available.

The examples with the bird icons will displayfor the first tweet in the stream while the avatar will display next to all tweets in the stream. Please note that the bird icons and avatar display do not really match so to display the avatar you need to set the first tweet icon to "no icon" and then set the avatar size to the desired size of the avatar. In order to display the bird icon on the first tweet and no icon then you need to set the avatar size to "0".
