Simon 5 is coming soon!
Simon version 5 is currently in beta testing. It is a massive update, introducing a much-requested feature: syncing the Simon data between multiple Macs, plus a Simon Status service, a Link Checker filter, improved Find filter, iMessage and Speak Error notifiers, a new app icon, and much more.
Important: please note that Simon 5 requires a minimum of macOS 10.12 (Sierra), and will be a paid upgrade from Simon 4 after the beta. Purchasers since September 1, 2020 automatically get a version 5 license (that also works in previous versions).
Re: Posting to Twitter
I think Twitter's recent API changes have broken the Twitter plugin. A risk of dealing with a third-party service! It's on my list to fix for the next release. Sorry for the inconvenience in the meantime.
Re: Posting to Twitter
Same thing here too. Do you need to add the @ in front of the user name?
If I could ask for a feature request, have a "test tweet" button to test the settings.
Re: Posting to Twitter
I haven't released a fix yet... it'll be coming in version 3.6, probably in a couple of weeks time.
You can test it now, though: click the Notify Now button in the Notifiers list window.
Re: Posting to Twitter
This is not fixed since three months now. Is it really that complicated?! When will there be an update?!
Re: Posting to Twitter
Twitter changed their API, which will require significant modifications to the Twitter plugin. But no, it isn't that complicated... I just haven't got around to it yet. I've been too busy with other projects. and unfortunately Simon has been neglected. I do actually hope to work on it today, though.
I'm sorry for the delay; it's frustrating for me too.
Re: Posting to Twitter
Simon 3.6 includes a rewritten Twitter plugin, so it is now compatible with the latest Twitter APIs. Sorry for the inconvenience!
