WordPress Twitter Tools – How to change the 'New Blog Post:' prefix when new posts are tweeted? #2

by Ivan Walsh on June 18, 2009

How do I change the ‘New Blog Post:’ prefix when my new posts get tweeted?

You have to change one line in the plug-in file.

Ok, the actual file you want is under Plugins in the twitter-tools folder.

Look for the file – twitter-tools.php.

Plugins/twitter-tools/twitter-tools.php.

Then change ‘New Blog Post:’ to whatever you want.

Alex King, the developer explains that “The reason this is done this way, and not as an easily changeable option from the admin screen, is so that the plugin correctly identifies the tweets that originated from previous blog posts when creating the digest posts, displaying the latest tweet, displaying sidebar tweets, and creating blog posts from tweets (you don’t want tweets that are blog post notifications being treated like tweets that originated on Twitter).”
