Troubleshooting# Error - Incorrect Redirect URL# If your redirect URL in your Twitter app looks similar to the following:
https://craft-site.test/index.php?p=actions%2Fsocial-poster%2Faccounts%2Fcallback
Twitter will raise an issue that this authorised redirect URI doesn't exactly match the one in Craft. This is due to the encoded characters by having the action path in a query string.
To fix, set usePathInfo(opens new window) to true in your general.php file, which will change the redirect URL in your provider settings, and use this to update your Twitter app.
