Twitter login detection fix now available

Edited on 04/17/09
Hey Flockstars,

Some of you may have noticed an issue in which Flock does not detect your login to Twitter and thus doesn't pull those you follow on Twitter into the People Sidebar. This is because of some changes that Twitter made in the last week.

A fix has been created for this bug and has been pushed live. This is a Web Detective fix, which means that you won't need to download an update. Instead this should come invisibly to you in the next 24 hours.

If you need it sooner, here are the steps to force a Web Detective update:

1. Go to Tools>Options (Windows) or Flock>Preferences (Mac)
2. Go to the Advanced section
3. Go to the "Update" tab
4. Click "Force Service Updates"
5. Shut down Flock and restart your computer

If the issue persists, please let us know.

Please Note: This fix is only for Flock 2.0 and above. A fix will come to 1.x in time, but we highly recommend that you upgrade to Flock 2.0 for improved functionality and speediness of bug fix delivery.

Thanks for your feedback about the issue, it's crucial in helping us hunt down and crush these bugs quickly!
