I've put together a basic module that will store subscription information and blog-wide opt-out information to facilitate subscribing to posts (and blocking...
I have written a script that does this, and I will try releasing it for beta testing maybe tomorrow when I finish tracking down a couple of warnings. What I...
I used some bits from the MT Api which creates a MT blog entry, assigns it to a category, and then publishes the whole mess. That much works. However, when I...
Pinging is a seperate function from rebuild. The functionality to do TrackBack and XML-RPC pinging is in the MT.pm module. Pings being reported as failed...
... MT doesn't send category TrackBack pings when an entry is published through the API. Six Apart is aware of the bug. Update pings (like weblogs.com) are...
oh I see. So if I want to send a ping out with each item I create, what is the correct way to do it through the API only? Instantiate a Trackback object, and...
I'm curious if anyone on this list has experience or interest in integrating a product database with M-T for the purpose of affiliate marketing? In fact, I'm ...
Using the MT api, I create a blog entry. Now I want the blog entry to send a ping to another website (Geourl.com). I'm a bit confused how to use the API to...
Hi there, As part of the K-Collector Client for MovableType we need to modify the entry editing template inserting code to invoke our topic manager. We do...
... A byproduct of the way that MT loads plugins is that you can override any built-in MT function with an identically named function in a plugin. So you could...
So I was writing some crude scripts that converted GPS waypoints into MoveableType blog entries, using the MT API. One of the steps is to ping geourl with the...
Hi Adam, ... Many thanks for responding. You're right, this is an approach that would make be a bit uncomfortable. There are so many ways it could go wrong...

Hi! I've just jointed your group. I'm Charli and I live in Springfield, MO. I just finished an MT course in November with the Virtual Learning Center and...
Charli, this isn't a Medical Transcription group. It's a development group for a software product called Movable Type. ;-) _____ From: Charli Hightower...
I would just like to ask all the plugin developers out there to take a look at my proposal for how to integrate what I am envisioning for the PM Plugin ...
Hi, how would one go about intercepting the MT::Entry::save method so that a plugin process would be run only when a new or edited entry is saved to the db,...
This is how i did it: { # Trap ugly redefinition warnings local $SIG{__WARN__} = sub { }; # Replace MT::Entry::save with our # own subroutine entrySave() but...
Thanks Gavin... how is this triggered? Do you have it running as a plugin that is triggered by a template tag? Or some other approach? I'm having trouble...
... Whenever mt.cgi runs, one of the first things it does is execute the code in all the .pl files in the plugins directory. So you can put this code in a...
Anyone have any idea of the order of execution if multiple overrides are specified? Say I write Plugin A, and override the save routine, then Kevin writes ...
Ah, I get it. Thanks, exactly what I needed to make my brain click. Hopefully as each plugin that overrides save is called, it actually globally redefines the...
In our plugin code, if we redefine *MT::Entry::save to be our own internal subroutine, which then calls the previous existing version of MT::Entry::save, then...
... If all the plugins in question use code like the code Gavin posted, then that is how it would work. In other words, if the plugin that's loaded first...
Hi all, It's good to see such an in-depth discussion about the DB layer of the MT platform. You might be interested to know that MT 3.0 will contain a built-in...
Hi Ezra - Wondering how detailed this will be. For instance, is it only at the beginning and ending of a routine, or will there be hooks possible within the...
By the way, it appears there are cases where save is called multiple times in a post cycle. Specifically, when there is a list of urls to ping - in that case,...
