Connecting to Twitter fails

I’m trying to add https://twitter.com/spacemacs to my feed list. I get a message that says “Your Twitter connection isn’t setup. Go to Manage - Friends and reconnect Twitter.” When I go to Manage - Followers and click “Find Twitter Friends” it takes me to a page asking to authorize Newsblur. I click “Authorize App”, and then it redirects me to a page that says "NewsBlur experienced an error

The error has been logged and will be fixed soon so you won’t have to see this message again.

Return to NewsBlur"

When I check https://twitter.com/settings/applications I see Newblur in the list of authorized applications. I’ve tried revoking the authorization, signing out of Newblur, signing back in, reconnecting, etc, but the same thing happens.

Same problem. I’ve added Twitter feeds previously, but when I try now, it tells me I have to have a Twitter account.

Same problem. Just checked. I see NewsBlur under application in Twitter. But I get the below when I try to add any Twitter user.

Your Twitter connection isn’t setup. Go to Manage - Friends and reconnect Twitter.

Have the same problem. Additional question: do I have to authorize the app to be able to add Twitter feeds and follow those accounts each ? Thanks

Try disconnecting and reconnecting from that dialog on NewsBlur. That should force a re-sync.

It’s not clear on how I can disconnect and reconnect from that dialog on NewsBlur.

You should see a Disconnect button next to Twitter. This only applies to the web (Manage > Friends).

I had to revoke access to Twitter and then add it again. That did it! Thank you. 

This works for me now too. Thanks!
