... Hash: SHA1 Hi Tim, ... Actually, limiting searches to a specific weblog may be a good thing in the end, as the current search engine's exposure of blog_id...
Thanks for the feedback Ben. ... I tossed this very topic around in my head for a bit. I couldn't think of any use cases for multiple weblogs myself, but...
... Someone who is managing non-blog content in MT (in a separate "blog") may want their entire site to be searchable. Having multiple blogs available through...
I need to write a small tool to help in admin of the plugin I am writing for MT. Since MT has a consistent admin interface, I was hoping to incorporate my...
I haven't seen any documentation for it, but I incorporated templates into two of my plugins so that their admin interface looks like MT. They are fairly...
Thanks Chad. However one question. By doing this, do I still inherit the login and permission information of the admin interface? In my plugin's case, I want...
Along those same lines, is it possible to create a new action so that you don't have to use your own standalone CGI script? That is, can you create a template...
... In plugins/jrandom.pl: MT::App::CMS->add_methods(shout => sub { return "WTF?"; }); mt.cgi?__mode=shout: WTF? Heh. That's a pretty slick way in. You'd still...
This sounds ideal! It's not working for me, however. Here's what I did: (1) Made a file clone.pl and put it in plugins/ -- package MT::Plugin::Clone; use...
... using the class method above? Your correct Rob, MT::App::CMS->add_methods() would not work. That method stores the key and sub routine references in a hash...
Hi all, In MT3.0 we're planning to roll out some new features for letting plugin developers tie into the interface. We've got a new routine that allows you to...
Hey all, I wrote a plugin to display kwiki nodes inline in a weblog entry. It required a bit of hackery so I'm not sure about releasing it publicly, but if...
Hi, I figured out how to integrate my movable type kwiki plugin with my movable type revision plugin. Basically a way to feature and snapshot a series of wiki...
I was wondering if there was a way to append a text filter to whichever ones are selected. I know MT::Entry::text_filters returns an array of filters, but if i...
You can add a text formatting engine. In fact there is a plugin API explicitly for this purpose. Look in the MT module. For more info, there is a section of...
Good day. For various reasons, I'd like to move my MT commenting over to phpBB commenting. The easiest way to do this (ignoring past-comment-conversion) seems...
I'm not at all familar with the internals of phpBB. Please take that into consideration for the rest of my reply. I'm also a fan of pure and simple code and...
Oh, good, I was hoping for a reply from you <g>. ... Ignoring everything else you've said, I've been investigating it off and on all morning. Here's what I...
... This is the best option that you proposed but I would suggest, rather then using DBI/SQL that you consider creating a simple RESTful web service. (In fact...
... I'm confused - how would a callback remove the need to [find out the phpBB ID and include it in the MT templates]? Either way, the templates would have to...
... Continuing on in that vein, I can't imagine that a centralized system is the right way to attack this problem: it just means a single point of failure in...
... Sorry I'm the one who is confused. I misunderstood what you meant. How would your plugin data code execute? Each time the ID is requested from a template? ...
... Well, the plugin code would have to execute at least once to create the thread in the phpBB forums. Then, because I want a link directly to the created...
... When the callback plugins are available you split your code that the threading opening routine would only run once and only once (more or less) rather then...
... Now in english. (I hate writing in a browser window.) When the call back plugins are avilable, you COULD split your code that the THREAD opening routine...
... My apologies for confusing possibilities: * a per-blog-registration-system would be a built-in, requiring no more effort to end-users than normal. that's...
... Gotcha. I was gonna if/else the badboy: [plugin begins] Plugin checks for MT ID in PluginData. If Plugin finds MT ID in PluginData, return phpBB ID Else If...
This works. The callback would avoid the need for the if-then during each page rebuild. Your template plugin would just do the lookup and return the value. To...
