New Commercial Services Section
We have now opened a commercial services section here on the forum for registered users. If you have a Fabrik project that you wish to have someone work on for you, post it under Help Wanted. If you are an application developer and wish to earn some money helping others, post your details under Fabrik Application Developers.
Both of these are unmoderated. It will be up to both parties to work out the details and come to an agreement.

Is the Twitter form plugin working?

Yes, they are supposed to be filled in.
OK, I think I see what is happening.
Can you try authorizing again, but this time DON'T save the form after the popup comes back and says it's been authorized. Instead, just close that popup, and reload the main page.
I think what's going on is that when I tested, I just authorized, then tried my front end form, and it worked. When you close that popup, it's supposed to set the fields on the form. But since that code was written, browsers have tightened up on security, and because it think Twitter opened that popup, it won't let it update fields on the main page. Which is OK if you don't save the form, because we've already stored those values in the database. But if you save the form, with those fields empty, it overwrites them.
Anyway .. try those instructions, it should work.
Meanwhile I'll try and fix it so it does save.

OK, should all be fixed as of this commit:
https://github.com/Fabrik/fabrik/commit/066e8c3b1822b37df4f0a137b758e344f88098ed
... which uses window.opener.postMessage() to send the auth credentials back to the form.
Can you test ... clear the credentials, re-auth, and they should get filled in properly again.

Just so you know (can't remember if we covered this) ... if you don't fill those out on the backed with your details, it will automatically ask the user to authenticate with Twitter on form submit, and use their credentials.

We have documentation?? LOL.
I just mentioned it as sometimes that's how people want it to work, and it's not immediately obvious.

And when you have well over 100 plugins, in addition to the core code, and it's just two of you doing the development, and one of you spends a lot of his day doing forum support ...
