WDS Twitter Widget

A widget that lets you show a user's latest tweets. Built with developers in mind and has many filters throughout.

There is a function for disabling the Twitter App credential fields in the widget. This is handy if you don't want consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token, and access_token_secret visibile to users of the WordPress dashboard, and allows you to keep it in version control.

To disable:

wds_twwi_disable_widget_app_settings( array(
	'consumer_key'        => 'YOUR CONSUMER KEY',
	'consumer_secret'     => 'YOUR CONSUMER SECRET',
	'access_token'        => 'YOUR ACCESS TOKEN',
	'access_token_secret' => 'YOUR ACCESS TOKEN SECRET',
) );

// Also works if you want to secure your keys through obscurity
// wds_twwi_disable_widget_app_settings( '0=CONSUMER_KEY&1=CONSUMER_SECRET&2=ACCESS_TOKEN&3=ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET' );

If there's an error with your app credentials, the error will be displayed in the WordPress dashboard.
