How Do I Enable Posting New Work To Twitter?

Currently I have it set so when I add new work and Submit I have the option to post to Facebook. I want to do the same for Twitter. Currently FB is enabled and Twitter is disabled. I tried clicking the "Click here to enable Twitter application" button under the Twitter Synchronization section but, unfortunately, that doesn't work. Instead of enabling Twitter it takes me to a message about Facebook:

"Facebook made changes to their app code on May 1st, 2015, and as a result of those changes, the connection between Fine Art America and Facebook is temporarily disabled. We've modified our code to work with their changes, and we're now just waiting for the tech team at Facebook to review and approve our code. The review process should be finished by May 11th. At that time, you can come back to this page, re-enable our Facebook app, and everything will start working correctly again. In the mean time, you'll just have to do things old-school. After you upload a new image to Fine Art America, just copy and past the URL into your Facebook timeline."

I tried going behind the scenes and enabling it in the default settings section but get the same message. Why am I getting a message about FB when clicking the Twitter button? How do I enable Twitter?

Didn't read your message properly, you already tried out what I had suggested.

I think they are both playing up a bit at present so I would wait until this is sorted

you really should do it manually. there is more fluff about this site rather than your own art, and you can't add the very important hashtags.

i think there is an option on each image at the bottom if you want to send it to twitter, its under default as well i think.

Yes, there's an option at the bottom of the page but mine is currently disabled with a link that says "click here to enable..." but it doesn't work for me. I guess I will just wait until May 11 and see if it gets fixed when the FB app does.

When you do it automatically it puts a link back to your FAA gallery and in a few clicks the buy can be off you page and lost in the 2 million images.

If you do it manually, you do it with links back to your AW and you are the only artist there and you have a captive audience.

Hi Crista,
Im a newbie, but go to the behind the scenes page and you find the synchronization button go there and link or re link your account to twitter. Hope this helps./
