Protected twitter accounts

[Jason Kerner]

Hi

I've got your twatterkeeper installed on my server, signed in using
the twitter account who is also the admin and started the archive
processes, and I've got 2 archives set up for certain hashtags but
after 2 days, there's nothing in them...

A) do the hashtags need to be entered in

'hashtag'

Or

'#hashtag'

B) if the twitter account that contains these tags is protected, can
it still see them to archive?

C) does yourtwatteekeeper have @person mode for archiving everything
by 1 account?

Thanks

Jason

Jason,
yourTwapperKeeper simply looks at everything as a keyword, so you
would have to put #hashtag as the keyword.

No protected accounts tweets will not be realized as that data does
not flow thru the public streaming api or available via the /search
API which yourTwapperKeeper uses.

No yourTwapperKeeper does not have an @person archive. You can almost
pull off the same query by running a keyword search for @person_name -
though it will get tweets from user (via the search api, b/c search
queries do also search the from_user field) in addition to tweets that
mention the user (from the streaming api / search api).

So basically you will get the data, but also get a little noise.
(This is different than how the prime TwapperKeeper.com site does
things - b/c it crawls the persons timeline which focuses only on the
user. To keep things simple in yourTwapperKeeper I stuck with one
archiving strategy.
