I downloaded this PHP library which takes all of the hassle out of the process
https://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth
I created the twitter app from https://dev.twitter.com, got my Consumer Key, Consumer Secret, added them to the twitter oauth library, ran the sample app, and everything was working great except for one thing : every time I signed into twitter, I was asked to authorize the app to access my twitter account.
So what did i miss ?
There is a setting in the twitter app configuration that needs to be checked and I forgot to check it
The setting is
After checking that setting, I launched the twitter oauth sample again and after signing into twitter, I was simply signed in without having to authorize the app again.
Hope this helps someone out there :)
