Display only my recent tweets not other tweets in twitter widget - twitter

I have a website in which i have embedded Twitter Widget to display recent tweets.
Currently twitter widget displays all tweets related with the hashtag and # of the user. Here i want to display the tweets by the user only not by any hashtags or #.
For example, if i want a widget of '#twitter', it shows widget like this...
I want to show tweets only of '#twitter' which '#twitter' have posted not the other users...
Could this be possible ??

There are several types of embedded timelines offered by Twitter, you are using the Search one. If you want to get a User Timeline, create a new widget using this URL: https://twitter.com/settings/widgets/new/user
This kind of timeline will only show tweets posted by the user you set.
If you don't want (or can't) create another widget, just change the search term of your widget to: from:#[user_handle]. Example: from:#TwitterDev

Can I notify users that I liked their tweet when using tweepy?

I have a small script to like certain tweets, but I noticed that unlike manual likes these dont show up in a users notifications. I tested this by using the tweet id of a tweet on another account. (Yes the tweet is being liked successfully and it is also shown on the tweet, just not in the notifications of the user)
Is it possible to have it appear in notifications like a "normal" like would?
I tried to see if it had to do with the "high" amount of likes (one per minute) or the type of tweets, no change. Google also didnt show up anything (obviously, thats why Im here).

Duplicate tweets on twitter widget when tabbing and widget updates

I have multiple embedded timelines on a website I am developing. The HTML for these timelines are auto-generated by TweetDeck.
Scenario:
1. A user switches to a different tab in the browser.
2. The timeline widget receives updates with multiple new tweets.
3. When the user re-activates the tab, the embedded timelines get flooded with duplicate tweets.
I have tried to change multiple parameter settings for the embedded-timeline class, but have not been able to fix this issue.
Does anybody know what might be causing this behavior?
The twitter devs will fix the issue in the next deploy. They are aiming for a release on 08.09.2015.
As I was finding the same issue, I posted it to the twitter community forum (apologize for the copy/paste).

Populating user details from the contact list

I am working on an app and need to make the user enter information like name, phone, address etc. Inside my app is it possible to show the contact list (Address book) and make the user pick the contact he wants to use. I am specifically hoping to find a way that also give me the UI and search functionality within the contacts just like the regular contacts list. So when the user wants to enter the information, I show him the contacts list (with the same UI/functionality or a subset of it) and let him pick the contact. Is there a way to do this in iOS?
Address book is there. USe that .

Open Graph on mobile (iOS)

I would like to realize an iPhone app with Facebook OpenGraph to push user activities directly in Facebook (for this part, it's OK). BUT, I would like to show friends activities for the same verb. In dev Facebook documentation, I don't find API to get friends activities...
Any ideas ?
GET /me/{namespace}:{action-type}
GET /me/{namespace}:{action-type}/{object-type}
Don't forget to ask for the permissions firends_actions:namespace
Namespace = namespace of your app
Find friends with the app (this gives you a nice tidy list)
Option 1. Use Fql.query so you can apply filters and get back only what you need...
Fql.query POST
SELECT uid, name, pic from user where uid in (select uid2 from friend where uid1=me()) and is_app_user=1", #"query
option 2. Use opengraph and get back a mother list of friends with their ID any fields you want to read (installed status shown)
GET me/friends&fields=installed
Then use the Friends list to download their {action-type} executions
Option1. Enumerate through your friends activity with this and then bare it all:
GET /friend_id/{namespace}:{action-type}
option 2. Force the user to browse the list of friends with the app...
They choose the friend and then ->
GET /friend_id/{namespace}:{action-type}
They get a list of that users last 25 actions.
It's how instagram works when you browse.
The thing we all want is to just have a feed with the last 25-50 actions by friends. Just like the activity plugin. At this point it seems like there is no way to get it. I spent hours searching and everyone ends up saying you need to do it manually on your own server. I wouldn't be surprised if this activity function is added to the graph sdk eventually. It's a reasonable request.

Show images in twitter widget

Is there anything I can add to the twitter widget (the one available on the twitter website) to make images mentioned in tweets appear below the tweet text?
The Twitter widget does not have that functionality. You will have to write your own or use a third party widget.
