@leopedrini, it happens in lots of Discourse instances. I’ve found, from discussing with moderators at a few, that it’s usually due to the forum using an unsupported authentication method - usually an old API call that’s been replaced.

The logs show that Twitter is denying my API call so there is probably something wrong with my credentials.
