This is a bug that has been reported by others, but I thought I'd pass it along since I was unaware of it until I ran into it. MT 3.2 does not permit you to...
... I've been excited by Data::ObjectDriver. Being able to bring the MT-style database object driver framework with me to other applications is very useful. ...
... Yeah, I did use Class::Trigger to get the basic feature, and it works well so far! My particular use doesn't require priorities, either, so my asking about...
... Right. What you describe is a Filter callback that is implemented at the application level in MT, not the object level. Still I think its a worthwhile...
Meant to reply to this thread a few weeks ago when it was current, but better late than never. I'd definitely be interested in using a system like this for my...
... I've always liked how CPAN has handled versioning. It leaves version to the maintainer(s) only enforcing at one time upload per version number. A uploaded...
Speaking of better late then never. Here is a message I've had queued up for a while without sending. ... Amen. ... Having studied the code since version 1.2,...
... Well put, Tim. I can see this. Luckily, we've been pretty consistently trying to right past wrongs and refactor as necessary. This is not an overnight...
Not generally - but I do get them from time to time for older MT code (for instance, the 2.6x version of MT-Notifier. I've just made those more apparent on...
So I started a "little" project last night after I read a message over on ProNet[1] and thought that would be easy. Famous last dying words. Actually it has...
Hi, Can anyone explain how CMSSaveFilter_* callbacks are supposed to work, or whether they do work? It looks like these are intended to be a hook for...
... I tested it and got the same result you did: it looks like the internal CMSSaveFilter_category that limits field length runs, but callbacks added by...
Hi Kevin, Unfortunately, these CMS callbacks are currently dysfunctional. Here's the deal: CMSSaveFilter_* callbacks are used to prevalidate data when saving ...
... Just out of curiosity -- shouldn't this callback be at the object level and not the application level? As I think about the scenarios in which I could use...
Its still not clear to me why a FileInfo record for an unnecessary/deleted file is being created, but further research into this turned up what I consider a...
Brad and Mark, thanks for your responses. ... Looks like the same applies to entries--save_entry or (when saving from Power-Editing Mode) save_entries. ... I...
... Understand and agree with where you are coming from. You can achieve such an effect with an object callback by wrapping it in an if statement like this: if...
... Good point. My other concern was that I would want to be able to do validation based on fields on an input form that don't map directly to columns of the...
I've had a question on my mind for a bit, and figured I'd ask those who (hopefully) know better than I. In the course of my work, I encounter a large number of...
Today I've released a new plugin the Tags.App PowerTagger. PowerTagger is a utility plugin for Tags.App users to tag entries en masse by implementing a Tags...
Or, maybe instead I should ask if anybody does anything other than just use the plugin and see what breaks? (Or, better yet, releasing it to users and seeing...
I install it, and if it works I release it. :) Not entirely true, but not far from reality. Typically I run through all the common combinations that I can...
I've created a few modules recently were I wrote a suite of tests using Test::More. These were purely logical modules (MT::TagCloud for instance) that didn't...
Has anyone installed Movable Type under mod_perl2 ? I know some of the modules changed names, but I'm hoping that someone else has already written a crib sheet...
Since no one is answering you I figure I'll pass this the second hand knowledge I have. Gawker is running Apache2 which requires mod_perl 2. They looked into...
I spent a couple hours hunting down bugs, and a lot of people were doing similar work, but there were just so many patches and development versions, and they...
