This plugin periodicaly pick tweets from tag,username or some text like this:

Where do I select the category,tags,content it will post to?
In plugin settings page there is a tab called “Post customization” where you can choose those
and more options for each tweet post this plugin publish
Can i exclude tweets with unwanted words/authors?
Yes you can exclude authors or words from the main configuration tab of the plugin
How work the title/body formatting
Formatting is easy to use, you can choose what you want to see in every post you publish, for egsample, you can set as title something
like this:
Tweet from %author%
and the body content like this:
<img src="%avatar_url%" alt="%author%"/> %author%: %tweet%. <a href="/">Back to Home</a>
And your tweet result is something like:
Tweet from iWafer

Why my site doesn’t grab images from twitter?
In some cases hosters have security setting in their configuration or firewalls or some other think like these,
if you have problems with images in tweets the main problem maybe is the “allow_url_fopen” PHP setting,
normaly you can request the activation of this function to enable the grabbing of images
