hello,
I’m doing something wrong I guess. When I enter [alex-hashtag-grabber hashtag="sheenroast"] in a html entry on my page, it gives me:

Warning: file_get_contents(http://search.twitter.com/search.json?rpp=100&q=%23sheenroast) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /opt/www/ghysensw/web/www.hoepertingen.be/wp-content/plugins/alex-twitter-hashtag-grabber/alex-hashtag-grabber.php on line 36

Hello, It appears that your installation of PHP is not compatible with the twitter hashtag grabber, Sorry. The reason why is file_get_contents appears to be disabled in your PHP configuration.

Hey,

Love the plug in… quick question:

When I put the shortcode in a page or post, it always displays the results at the top of the page or post, regardless of where on the page I put the shortcode. Is there a way to make the search results display on the page relative to the placement of the shortcode?

Thanks,
Matt

Hi. Is it possible to download the results to a file (text, pdf) rather than to display online?

Many thanks for this. I use it with my students on my math website.

QUESTION: Would it be possible to format the date stamp so that it is in another color and on a separate line? Also, could it be possible to start the tweet with the name of the tweeter and in another color?

Thanks again.

I had another question. it’s a bit different than the plugin you are offering but is there a way to do something similar to what they do here http://tcot.dailyright.net/ – I am looking to somehow manually add people in and have their images/info and everything appear but it arranges them in order by followers. Want the person with the most followers on top. Thanks for your time.
