XF 2.2 Twitter X

[Alvin63]

So if the Twitter bird is changing to X (and it already has I noticed on Twitter today), what happens to all the share links with the Twitter bird on? Not just on XF but on multiple websites? And how quickly will the bird change to an X?

Can it magically remove the new twitter logo from the internet?

I personally wish it could simply remove Twitter/X from the internet.... but it's not quite that powerful.

CTRL+F4 works great for getting rid of the X.

I honestly forgot it event existed.

Well now that we're correcting others. ALT + F4. Or CTRL + W.

We’ll take his rebrand seriously once he does.

Twitter embedding will start failing with URL change.

You think he cares? Heck, I'm surprised he hasn't disabled embedding. Give it time, somebody will suggest it sooner or later in order to make "X" a walled garden as much as possible.

But we will have to care! Members will start complaining.

Used https://xenforo.com/community/resources/s9e-media-sites.5973/ to resolve all the x.com issues I was having and working great now.

The next third point release will make provisions to ease the transition should twitter.com completely change to x.com.

Note that this change has happened since the last version was released so there hasn’t been an opportunity to make those changes yet.

This has been fixed with the recent update
