   Hi,

   I have been searching through the forums for a solution, but everything I've tried up to this point is still not working. My PHP allow is open. I've tried replacing the file from another thread. I tried editing it directly. Still though, it is not feeding properly. I'm getting the error message randomly. Though, I was able to change it to "Twitter is having problems at the moment." The site is http://agentexpo.org. Any help you could provide would be great.

   Hi piafl,

   It sounds like you're most likely using up your REST API ’s 150 requests per hour. You can read more about this here:

   One thing you can try is to increase the cache time of the Twitter feed.

   Open up the following file:
   wp-content/themes/infocus/lib/functions/twitter.php

   and find line # 45

   define('MAGPIE_CACHE_AGE', 900);

   Change the 900 to 1800. This will increase the cache time to 30 minutes

   Thanks Webtreats. I've implemented the change and we'll see what happens over the next few days.
