We'll pass the feature request along to Kriesi.</p> <p>Regards,<br /> Mya </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/twitter-variable#post-73253 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 13:47:14 +0000 kbunt 73253@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Thanks so much! This worked perfectly Dude. </p> <p>I've used this to build a scrolling twitter feed in the banner text area of the theme. <a href="http://icrf.bunt.ca/" rel="nofollow">http://icrf.bunt.ca/</a><br /> It is by no means as elegant as the theme or existing options, merely fulfills a request. I've shared the commented code here: <a href="http://icrf.bunt.ca/twitter3.zip" rel="nofollow">http://icrf.bunt.ca/twitter3.zip</a>. </p> <p>Since I develop child themes, the function file in the child theme uses the avia_frontend_js function to register the jquery.cycle.all.js plugin (and echo the settings).</p> <p>I am wondering if this is something that may be added as a <strong>feature request? The ability to show Twitter and Facebook feeds at the top.</strong> My script does not use the avia_banner function and therefore does not have the ability to collapse the infotext div and save the user's choice in a cookie.</p> <p>Thanks again!<br /> Kevin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/twitter-variable#post-73181 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 06:17:36 +0000 Dude 73181@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Following code should work:</p> <pre><code>$icons = avia_get_option(&#39;social_icons&#39;); if (!empty($icons)) { foreach ($icons as $icon) { if( $icon[&#39;social_icon&#39;] == &#39;twitter&#39;) { $link = $icon[&#39;social_icon_link&#39;]; $linkparts = parse_url($link); $username = substr($linkparts[&#39;path&#39;],1); break; } } } if (!empty($username)) { echo $username; }</code></pre> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/twitter-variable#post-73167 Tue, 28 Aug 2012 04:00:08 +0000 kbunt 73167@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Wondering if anyone knows if there is a variable for a twitter username? e.g. $twitter_username<br /> I am trying to pull the value into a simple script with the following method but the value isn't correct.<br /> <code>&lt;a id=&quot;twittericon&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://twitter.com/&lt;?php echo avia_get_option(&#39;twitter&#39;); ?&gt;&quot;&gt;Twitter User&lt;/a&gt;</code></p> <p>I think with the Choices theme the entire URL is used? But can't figure out how to break it out so I can use it in other places and not add an extra option to the GUI e.g. $username = avia_get_option('twitter');</p> <p>Thanks for any input!<br /> Kevin </p>
