This feature would come in very handy if you want to grow your social media presence and give your brand some much-needed exposure. Follow the guidelines below to share your WordPress posts on your Twitter account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: Connect X (Twitter) with SchedulePress<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

First of all, make sure that you have created an App from your Twitter Developer<\/strong><\/a> account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Afterwards, navigate to SchedulPress \u2192 Settings <\/strong>from your WordPress dashboard.<\/strong> Then, open the \u2018Social Profile\u2019<\/strong> tab and switch to the \u2018Twitter\u2019<\/strong> option.  Make sure that the \u2018Twitter\u2019<\/strong> option is enabled. Afterward, click \u2018Add New Profile\u2019<\/strong> to connect your Twitter profile with SchedulePress.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"automatically<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

After hitting the \u2018Add New Profile\u2019<\/strong> button, you will have to insert your Twitter App ID and App Secret Key.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"automatically<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Now, go to your Twitter Developer account<\/strong><\/a>. From the developer console, go to the Apps section. Here, you will need an app and its credentials to connect to SchedulePress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can either create a new app or use an existing app\u2019s data. For tutorial purposes, we are creating a new app here. For that, tap the \u2018Create App<\/strong>\u2019 button.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"automatically<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Here, set your application name and select the environment as Production<\/strong>. Once done, hit the \u2018Create New Client Application<\/strong>\u2019 button. Your app will be created in a few seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"automatically<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Now, on the next pop-up, you will be provided with three keys: Consumer Key, Secret Key<\/strong> and Bearer Token. <\/strong>Copy and save those keys somewhere for later purposes and close the pop-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will see your created app on the apps page. From here, select your app and under \u2018User Authentication Settings<\/strong>,\u2019 tap the \u2018Set Up\u2019 <\/strong>button. For the App permissions, select Read and write and Direct message.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"automatically<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Then, select Web App, Automated App or Bot for the Type of App<\/strong>. Next, under the App info, provide the callback URL available in the SchedulePress dashboard. Under it, provide your website URL. Once done, hit the \u2018Save Changes<\/strong>\u2019 button.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"automatically<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

A pop-up will appear with the OAuth 2.0 Client Secret keys. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Afterward, switch back to your WordPress website. Collect the consumer key and APP ID saved earlier in the first place. Then, simply paste the consumer key<\/strong> in the App ID field and the secret key in the App Secret<\/strong> field. Once done, hit the\u2018Connect Your Account\u2019<\/strong> and your Twitter account will be successfully connected to SchedulePress.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"automatically<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

By simply following the previous steps, you can add a new profile and connect multiple Twitter accounts with SchedulePress as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2: Configure Social Templates<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Switch to the \u2018Social Templates\u2019<\/strong> tab to make changes to your Tweet settings. You can configure the Tweet Template Settings and place around content parameters the way you want the tweet to appear. You can show your tags and categories as \u2018Hashtags\u2019<\/strong> from here.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"automatically<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Enable \u2018Show Post Thumbnail\u2019<\/strong> to display the featured image of your post as a thumbnail image in the Twitter share. You can even enable \u2018Content Source\u2019 <\/strong>to display your excerpt or content in the posts and set your \u2018Tweet Limit\u2019<\/strong> accordingly. After making all the changes as per your preferences, hit the \u2018Save\u2019<\/strong> button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3: Use Custom Template & Automatically Share to X (Twitt<\/strong>er<\/strong>)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Now, open the post that you want to share instantly or upon scheduling. If you schedule your WordPress post, it will automatically be shared on the Twitter account. Besides, if you want, you can even instantly share your live post on Twitter as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To do that, go to your post and navigate to\u00a0SchedulePress<\/strong><\/span> \u2192 Click Social Share Platform<\/strong> and choose \u2018Twitter\u2019<\/strong> from the default templates. You can also choose custom social templates and write your own message. Besides, you can even upload a custom \u2018Social Share Banner\u2019<\/strong> for your tweet.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
