Twitter for WordPress displays yours tweets, your friends timeline, a Twitter search result or the current twitter trends in your WordPress blog. This is done by using the built in widget or by using PHP functions in your theme.
<h4>Features</h4>
<pre><code>* Simply
* Customizable
* Widget support
* No options page (yes, this is a feature if you consider that other plug-in cannot be inserted in your site more than once due to this)
* Uses WordPress resources (no extra files needed)
* Detects URLs, e-mail address and @username replies
</code></pre>
<h4>Usage</h4>
If you use WordPress widgets, just drag the widget into your sidebar and configure. If widgets are not your things, use the following php code to display Twitter messages:
<pre><code><?php twitter_messages("username"); ?>
</code></pre>
A number of options are available like:
<pre><code>* specifying the number of the elements that should appear in your list via the $num parameter;
* let the elements appear into an HTML list via the $list parameter
* show the time when the tweet has been published via the $update parameter
* transform text into an active link via the $hyperlinks parameter and apply a nofollow decoration with the $nofollowattribute
* exclude retweets via the $excludeRT parameter
* or don't include tweets that contain a particular text via $excludeText parameter (you can pass a simple string, or an array of values comma separated) 
</code></pre>
If you want to display tweets to a special search result, use the following code:
<pre><code><?php twitter_searchstring("#twitaly"); ?>
</code></pre>
If you want to display the tweets of your friends timeline, use this:
 
If you want to display the current twitter trends, use that snippet:
 
<h4>Customization</h4>
The plug in provides the following CSS classes: 
 * ul.twitter: the main ul (if list is activated) 
 * li.twitter-item: the ul items (if list is activated) 
 * p.twitter-message: each one of the paragraphs (if msgs > 1) 
 * .twitter-timestamp: the timestamp span class 
 * a.twitter-link: the tweet link class 
 * a.twitter-user: the @username reply link class 
 * li.twitter-item img: format the avatar icon on search results

Any Suggestions? 
As I’m not a PHP programmer and I’m not going to support this fork actively, I will be glad to hear from you. Maybe that if the request or the suggestion is interesting enough I can spend some time on the development.
