Retweet problems: no @

When people click on "Retweet", the automaticaly-added retweet message doesn't include the "@" before the Twitter name, so we cannot trace retweets. For example, it sends "RT twitter This is my tweet" instead of "RT @twitter This is my tweet". It must be corrected ASAP. Thanks.

I’m frustrated

It should do this... I just tested it a couple times.

Perhaps you are clicking the "DM" button? in which case, "d username message" is the correct format.

Does this help?

Thanks,

Oh, I tested with another page and it worked (e.g. http://ow.ly/ja43 ). But, actually, I think it only works on some pages. For example, on this page, it doesn't work: http://ow.ly/kbgN

You were talking about which "DM" button? It really happens when I click on "Tweet".

Thanks for you help.

I’m feeling better

I think you should be ok as long as you click the retweet button and have a profile selected.

Can you please let us know if this happens again.

The @ is still not appearing. For example, on the 2nd URL showed above, if I click on "retweet", the sent tweet will be: "RT teleduquebec: Le tournage de l’adaptation espagnole des Lavigueur débutera la semaine prochaine. http://ow.ly/kbgN"

But, to keep in touch with who retweets my articles, the "@" before "teleduquebec" should appear like on the first link. Do you understand what I'm trying to say? I don't know if this issue only happens with me or with unreg users.

Thanks a lot for your time.
