    Hi guys.

    I want a PHP script so that once executed it will automatically tweet a message on my twitter account.

    Here I followed this tutorial but want to expand on it by automatically authorizing me to tweet instead of having to manually click authroize everytime i login.

    http://tekxplorer.blogspot.com/2010/08/twitter-oauth-using-php-to-make-your.html


    So I've already signed up for twitter developer app and got the tokens.

    I made it work, but I have to manually authorize myself anyone know how to avoid the authentication bit so it posts once i execute the php script?



    Please help thanks.

    Hi,
    it's simple. Your app have to call this address: https://twitter.com/oauth/authenticate That gives forever authorization.


    There is also another way to solve ur problem. When ur app calls the twitter it gives it an access token and a secret token(every user have a different one), which are used every time you ask anything to the Twitter API. You just have to put them to database. When u know this tokens u can use them to call twitter api directly. It's simple.


    best regards,
    s.
