AddThis

Same here. Our URLs used to be automatically shortening using bit.ly (even although the docs say the default is t.co or something...)

So I had to create a bit.ly account and an AddThis account and put in my bit.ly account details into the profile of my AddThis account and re create my Javascript includes to have my new "pubid=[my new id]"

and then add the following code after my Twitter template option:

<script type="text/javascript">
var addthis_share = {
templates: { twitter: 'check out {{title}} {{url}} via @xxxxxxx',},
url_transforms : { shorten: {twitter: 'bitly'}},
shorteners : {bitly : {}}

}
</script>

A bit of work!

Any edits done in the Twitter box after clicking the AddThis twitter icon are also now ignored (not due to the changes away though, since it's happening on another site as well) ... but that's another message...

Same here - always worked now just stopped.
Posts funky links like this to Twitter: http://www.reallylongurllinkhere.com##.UCKLF8QHkhY.twitter

These show up this way when composing the message and after posting. Nothing has changed on my end, so what's changed on Twitter?

Also rereading Iaian's post, was having the same issue yesterday with edits made to the Twitter share a link field not getting posted to Twitter. But, it's working so far today.

We pushed a release last night that fixed an issue where a site using Twitter templates wouldn't allow the user to update the status. (This was due to a change on Twitter's end.)

If you're still using Twitter templates you should remove them as they'll cause inconsistent behavior and you should instead use the tw:via and tw:text options.
