The hotTweet feature is available in hotComm revision 7.50.065 or higher.
Setup
In hotComm Pro or hotComm Standard:
- Click Options, then Preferences, check Enable hotTweet, and click Settings.
- Type in the UserName and Password of your Twitter account.
- For Send when message starts with: , type in a prefix that will tell hotComm this is to be posted to Twitter as well as into the room. To avoid accidentally sending posts to Twitter, choose a prefix that you would not use normally. Note: the prefix will appear in the message posted in the room.
- Click OK.
Use in room
Type the prefix you chose (such as t@) followed by your message and press Enter.
For example:
hotComm Standard hotTweet feature license
You can buy a hotTweet license to enable the hotTweet feature on the hotComm website at http://hotcomm.com/order.asp. The unlock code can only be used once.
The hotTweet feature license is a perpetual license that is good for the lifetime of the original hotComm registration (original means the hotComm registration you put the unlock code into). You do not need to renew it. It can not be transferred to another hotComm registration or email address.
The hotTweet feature is included in hotComm exports, including exports you make yourself (click Registration, then Export Identity), and in the automatic export that we make when you put in a new unlock code. Therefore, when you import an export made from a hotTweet activated copy of hotComm, hotTweet is included.
