+Friendica uses addons to provide connectivity to some networks, such as Twitter.
There is also a addon to post through to an existing account on a GNU Social service.
You only need this to post to an already existing GNU Social account, but not to communicate with GNU Social members in general.
This is accomplished through the site administration panel.
Each of the connectors also requires an "API key" from the service you wish to connect with.
-Some addons allow you to enter this information in the site administration pages, while others may require you to edit your configuration file (config/local.ini.php).
+Some addons allow you to enter this information in the site administration pages, while others may require you to edit your configuration file (config/local.config.php).
The ways to obtain these keys vary between the services, but they all require an existing account on the target service.
Once installed, these API keys can usually be shared by all site members.
Register your Friendica site as "Client" application with "Read & Write" access.
We do not need "Twitter as login".
When you've registered the app you get a key pair with an OAuth Consumer key and a secret key for your application/site.
-Add this key pair to your config/local.ini.php:
