    Hi,

    Trying to install on laurelgreen.net using Chrome and Tampermonkey

    Plugin appears to install fine, very easy thank you.

    When I use
    Dashboard -> Tools -> Install PAT Twitter
    I can see the correct Twitter Avi with a Connected to Twitter status

    Clicking the “Click here to download and Install…” link takes me to the .js file itself (I’m guessing this is not the expected route?).

    I’ve attempted to just copy paste the script into tampermonkey editor (and noticed in the header comment it sez it’s a greasemonkey script ;).

    Question 1 – am I correct to assume that the WPplugin uses Tools ->Install PAT Twitter in a way that is comparable to the “click here to download and install” link found on pat-twitter.herokuapp.com ?

    Question 2 – If so is there another way to find a similar page on the server I’m trying to use as a facilitator?

    TIA,
    Laurel

    Unfortunately Tampermonkey installation is a bit frustrating because of the issue described here, but you are generally on the right track, yes.

    You can either save the JavaScript as a .user.js or you can copy-and-paste it into a “New Script” using Tampermonkey’s own user interface.

    One possible solution moving forward is to use mod_rewrite to modify URL of userscript installation (if .htaccess can be written to) so as to work around Tampermonkey’s limitation here; that’s what the Heroku version of the PAT-Twitter facilitator does, anyway.

    For question 2: no, the “Install…” button is the only page that will offer up the paired userscript code for installation.

    Hope this helps.
