Allows authors to quote Twitter updates in posts or pages using a simple shortcode. [quotetweet tweetid=123456789].

== Description ==

**Quote tweets from Twitter** directly to a Wordpress page or post using a simple shortcode.

Basic example: `[quotetweet tweetid=1234567890]` (See the "Usage" section)

Depending on the template you select, an **"in reply to"** link will be created if the tweet is a reply to another tweet. All generated links have rel="external".

**notes:** 

* This plugin caches the information it gets from Twitter.com. Please make sure the `/cache/` subfolder is writable!
* Cache files expire automatically every 24 hours. To manually delete the cache, save your template settings again.
* The current version allows you to create and use your own tweet templates. Contact the author to have your templates included in upcoming versions!

== Installation ==

1. Upload/extract the `wp-quote-tweets` folder to your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
3. **Make sure the `/cache/` subfolder is writable! (Permissions set to 766 seem to work best)**
4. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.

== Usage ==

Example: `[quotetweet tweetid=1234567890]`

The `tweetid` can be found in the URL of the tweet that is to be quoted. 

For example, you can quote the following tweet:

http://twitter.com/TCorp/status/2208284083

Its tweetid is `2208284083`; making the shortcode look like this:

`[quotetweet tweetid=2208284083]`


== Screenshots ==

1. Post with rendered Twitter tweets.

2. Post with rendered Twitter tweet quoted in alternate template.

3. Post with twitter.tidy template
