problem with linkify and twitters url shortener service

[isimmons]

Found the problem. Not with linkify(). As a RT that exceeds the 140 char limit it gets truncated. https://dev.twitter.com/docs/platform-objects/tweets

The truncated value should be set to true but for some odd reason it is false so I'm just ensuring that any retweet uses the 'retweeted_status' instead of 'text' since RTs should be the only time truncation would occur. If I need to limit chars on RTs I can do it in my own code.

foreach ($timeline as $tweet) {
        if(isset($tweet->retweeted_status))
        {
            $tweet->text = $tweet->retweeted_status->text;
        }          
    }

Thank you for pointing this problem.

I tried this too and I get some curious values.
Twitter say status not truncated and the link's indices are 139-140...

'truncated' => boolean false

'urls' => 
    array (size=1)
      0 => 
        array (size=4)
          'url' => string 'http://t.co/xq4QUBWT1V' (length=22)
          'expanded_url' => string 'http://bit.ly/1hZyeLI' (length=21)
          'display_url' => string 'bit.ly/1hZyeLI' (length=14)
          'indices' => 
            array (size=2)
              0 => int 139
              1 => int 140
