Twitter API Shortcodes (TAS for short) is currently in Alpha, and should not be considered at all stable! With that said 
please provide any feedback so we can make things better!
TAS allows you to put single tweets or entire twitter searches into your posts and pages using shortcodes. The tweets and searches 
are displayed in HTML markup, so the become “part” of your site, which is good for SEO.
The generated markup can be customized by putting a tweet.tpl (smarty template) file into your theme directory. This also means that 
theme authors can support this plugin directly.
Tweet templates assume that each tweet is in some block with the class ‘status’ (preferably a div like so
<
div class=”status”>), and that in that block, there is a block for images with the class ‘images’ (preferably a div like so
<
div class=”images”>)
All single tweets are cached in your local wordpress database, making performance ultra fast and reducing the number of requests 
necessary to the Twitter API.
Twitter searches can also be cached, allowing you to keep a history of that particular search. This is useful if you want to 
tweet about a particular event with a hash tag, then display all of your tweets for that event on a page, or in a post even 
after those tweets fall out of the twitter search index.

This is a list of things which currently are not yet working (hey it’s an alpha version)

<a href="http://www.mailgun.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Mailgun</a> is the email automation engine trusted by over 10,000 website and application developers for sending, receiving and tracking emails. By taking advantage of Mailgun’s powerful email APIs, developers can spend more time building awesome websites and less time fighting with email servers. Mailgun supports all of the most popular languages including PHP, Ruby, Python, C# and Java.
One particularly useful feature of this plugin is that it provides you with a way to send email when the server you are on does not support SMTP or where outbound SMTP is restricted since the plug-in uses the Mailgun HTTP API for sending email by default. All you need to use the plugin is a <a href="http://www.mailgun.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Mailgun account</a>. Mailgun has a free account that lets you send up to 200 emails per day, which is great for testing. Paid subscriptions are available for increased limits.
The latest version of this plugin now supports regions. Select either U.S./North America or Europe to choose the API endpoint from which you will send email.
The current version of this plugin only handles sending emails, tracking and tagging and list subscription.

I’ve seen the negative reviews, but honestly my experience has been the opposite: the plugin just works, exactly as it should. Updates are rare, but that’s simply because the plugin is straightforward; it does one thing and does it well.



Mailgun itself deserves praise too. They’ve kept their quality and reliability over the years, without suddenly changing pricing or taking advantage of their position, unlike so many other companies. That’s rare, and really appreciated.



Thanks a lot for existing and staying awesome! 💕


Simple, Reliable, and Honest

Easily send email from your WordPress site through Mailgun using the HTTP API or SMTP.
