Twitter feeds not working in Wordpress anymore - October 2012

wickett twitter Error: Twitter did not respond. Please wait a few minutes and refresh this page.

And other Wordpress Twitter Plugins seem to have the same issue.  

I found this post Fix for twitter feed error

For the plugin Wickett Twitter Widget  -  I fixed it by changing this line of code.

OPEN
wp-content/plugins/wickett-twitter-widget/wickett-twitter-widget.php

find ( around line 200 )

$instance['account'] = str_replace('http://www.twitter.com/', '', $instance['account']);


REPLACE WITH

$instance['account'] = str_replace('http://api.twitter.com/1/', '', $instance['account']);
