在你的wordpress博客中显示你的Twitter关注者数量

Posted 2021-02-24

Add this snippet to the functions.php to render your twitter followers count.
Replace 'planetabhi' with your twitter screen name

function my_followers_count($screen_name = 'planetabhi'){
	$key = 'my_followers_count_' . $screen_name;
 
	// Let's see if we have a cached version
	$followers_count = get_transient($key);
	if ($followers_count !== false)
		return $followers_count;
	else
	{
		// If there's no cached version we ask Twitter
		$response = wp_remote_get("http://api.twitter.com/1/users/show.json?screen_name={$screen_name}");
		if (is_wp_error($response))
		{
			// In case Twitter is down we return the last successful count
			return get_option($key);
		}
		else
		{
			// If everything's okay, parse the body and json_decode it
			$json = json_decode(wp_remote_retrieve_body($response));
			$count = $json->followers_count;
 
			// Store the result in a transient, expires after 1 day
			// Also store it as the last successful using update_option
			set_transient($key, $count, 60*60*24);
			update_option($key, $count);
			return $count;
		}
	}
}
 
echo "I have " . my_followers_count('planetabhi') . " followers";
