I am trying to implement Twitter’s OAuth into my Code Igniter web application at

  • 0

I am trying to implement Twitter’s OAuth into my Code Igniter web application at which the callback URL is /auth/ so once you have authenticated with Twitter you are taken to /auth/?oauth_token=SOME-TOKEN.

I want to keep the nice clean URL’s the framework provides using the /controller/method/ style of URL but I want to enable query strings as well, there will only ever be one name of the data oauth_token so it’s ok if it has to be hard coded.

Any ideas?
I have tried tons of the things people are saying to do, but none work 🙁
PS: I’m using the .htaccess method of URL rewriting.

    There are several ways to handle this.

    Most People, and Elliot Haughin’s Twitter Lib, extend the CI_Input library with a MY_Input library that sets allow_query_strings to true

    You will also need to add ? to the allowed characters in config/config.php and set $config[‘url_protocal’] to PATH_INFO
