I've always been able to share pages with the Firefox "Share this Page" icon. The last week or so, I've not been able to share pages to Twitter, though. I just get a message saying Firefox can't connect to Twitter at this time. I have removed Twitter from the add-on, and then re-added it several times, to no avail. I have disabled it and then enabled it several times, as well. I have no problem tweeting or sharing tweets from the actual article I'm trying to share - the problem only exists with the Share this Page add-on in Firefox. I'm using Firefox version 46.0.1. I'm just befuddled as to how to fix this. Help!

Did you change your twiter password recently?

No, and I have no problem, as I said, sharing articles to Twitter from the article itself. Nor do I have problems logging in and tweeting directly from my Twitter account. It's ONLY the Share this page icon button in Firefox that doesn't work.
