I'd like to allow people visiting my blog to follow me on Twitter. The actual problem is the Twitter officiel follow button does not really fit on my website (http://thomaskowalski.net, at the bottom of the page), I'd like it to be in the same style as the other links. I saw in the code that the button is actually a link (starting with the link tag a). So I tried to remove the class attribute, but now it's just a link to my twitter profile, which is the same at the right (Twitter link). So have you an idea of how to do to create a automatic follow button, with no user confirmation but without the ugly Twitter style.
Thank you :)

On my website I pasted link to make a tweet. Link is from this site:
http://socialmediasun.com/how-to-make-a-tweet-this-link/
and link to make a tweet:
http://twitter.com/home?status=Learn%20How%20to%20Make%20a%20Pre-Formatted%20Tweet%20Link%20for%20Instant%20Sharing!%20http://socialmediasun.com/how-to-make-a-tweet-this-link/%20by%20#etelligence%20via%20#Sun_Social
It should appear new form with button Tweet, but it doesn't work
Here is button created by the owner of the website and it doesn't work on my twitter account too:
https://www.targetinternet.com/how-to-create-pre-written-tweet-buttons-and-links/
- example button
this link doesn't work too: https://twitter.com/home?status=kk
That website is outdated - you should follow the official documentation at https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-for-websites/tweet-button/overview
This link will make a Tweet which says "Hello world"
https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=Hello%20world
I'm trying to make a footer, with Instagram link, Facebook link, Youtube link so on and so forth. My question is: How do I create a link that specifically refers to a state like write to an email account?
For instance, I have this email:
example#gmail.com
What I want is a link like this:
https://mail.google.com/write_to:example#gmail.com
And when someone clicks on it, the Gmail automatyli opens the "write letter tab" to example#gmail.com.
Thanks :)
Well you can't force somebody to gmail. You can use a normal link
<a href='mailto:example#gmail.com?subject=write letter>mail to</a>
This will open the users default mail app.

I have modified the user agent to be able to login to Google. When the user tries to login, he sees the following screen:
The company name I hid is clickable. Upon clicking it, there pops a small dialogue box with some Developer Info.
1) Is there any way to disable that link?
2) If not, is it possible to modify the text inside the dialogue box? Because currently, personal email id of a developer is displayed which we don't want.
Any help or relevant link would be appreciated.
EDIT:
Just like YouTube is disabled, I want my company's name to be disabled as well..
It seems that apart from YouTube no other company has this link disabled. I checked on MakeMyTrip, GoIbibo, TripAdvisor, StackOverflow and Quora. As YouTube is such a huge company, they might have got the screen customized from Google, just my hunch.
You have two options:
The best option is to create the project in a different Google account so your personal email won't show.
In the Email field on API console "OAuth Consent screen", you can select the Google group email (so create a group).
I am new to Twitter API and in twitter in general so I have some questions. I have a web site and I want to add a button for sharing a message (for example "Hello World", taken from my site) to a user's twitter page.
First of all I have created an application in twitter, call myTwitterApp and I want to post through this. When the user clicks the button I want to see the authentication page, for login, and then after login I want to see my message inside the editable input, being able to be changed my the user. And finally I want the user to post it by clicking the tweet button, but continue saying that the post was "via myTwitterApp".
Does anyone have an idea how to do it or how to search about it?
Thanks in advance.
I have some experience with the twitter api lately, but not comprehensively. so I can only give you some kind of direction, and hopefully this will help you. So the idea is that you should understand how the Oauth protocol works, steps like requestToken->accessToken->api calls. there is a tutorial for beginners here http://oauth.net/documentation/getting-started/, you shold take a look. if you have manage to go through the oauth authentication, then you should be able to call the POST method which you can post contents to Twitter. you can search for Twitter oauth api, there are a bunch of them online. grab one and use it.
I was just viewing a users profile on dribbble.com, they had linked their profile with twitter, when hovering over the link to go to their twitter page, it shows a url like this:
http://dribbble.com/thyraz/click?type=twitter
I'm wondering what the website/coding reason/advantage for doing this would be? why not just put a normal link to their twitter profile? does this protect the website from phishing attempts or something?
dribbble could be tracking/counting the links?
eg, "click" could be a page which counts the click, then it sends them on their way to the page.
EDIT:
For example, search Google for "Stack Overflow" and hover over one of the sponsored links on the right. in the status bar, you will see the link goes to a page hosted by Google rather than to the actual link. This page will be keeping a record of all the clicks on that link, then redirecting the link as expected.
