How can I use the alternate solution (smapsolutions app) for publishing posts on Twitter

SMAPSolutions Twitter service will be terminated on Nov 23, 2024

 

Note: Due to recent changes in Twitter’s developer API pricing, we are no longer able to offer support for users of the smappsolutions package. The cost of the required access tier is currently beyond our resources.
We recommend existing users leverage the {PERMALINK} functionality in message format to display tweet previews with Twitter cards enabled when sharing to Twitter. This approach minimizes API calls compared to media uploads.
If media upload functionality is critical, users can create their own applications on Twitter with the appropriate access tier.
We have disabled the purchase option for Twitter users within smappsolutions. “
