As requested by Chris, here's a hack that will give you an extra field for your comments, and have the contents of that field included in your email notification. (note: what this will NOT do is show those contents back on your site. I can think of a way to do that with php and […]

A few weeks ago, Kristine posted about Redirects in MT, and this got me thinking. I had already looked at an archive mapping solution which was recently updated, but it required that I have access to the server config files (not just a .htaccess file) because a RewriteMap can only be defined in the server […]

Earlier today, I saw a lazy web post about using mod_rewrite to redirect pages if you change your MT URLs. Check out Generating MT Entry Redirects. Another thought that I had today — if you are moving a blog from one location to another (think changing domains), you could use a redirect right in the […]

From my travels for today: :: Want to convert from LiveJournal to MT? Meredith has information on how to do it here and is working on a full tutorial. :: SimpleComments from Kalsey Consulting Group will allow you to display your comments and your trackback pings all together in one spot. The logic being that […]

There's been so many great plugins developed for Movable Type since that functionality was added. To keep track of them all, and to help me in answering questions on the forums, I put together a Plugin Directory (powered by MT, of course!) It actually uses some of the plugins that I hadn't tried out yet […]

Would you like to have a different saying below your post based on what time it was posted instead of (or in addition to) the date? A poster on the MT forums did, so I cooked up this little script yesterday. <? //set the beginning time for each time section – keep the quotes in […]

This is a hack that reminds me a lot of "LiveJournal" blogs, and I know many MT users long for it. So, Scott has made the hack. This one is not for the faint of heart, but it looks very snazzy when you are finished. Read Scott's Tutorial here. BTW, you must be using the […]

Heather asked me if it were possible to make your archives listing only show the last 6 months one way, and then the rest another way. She wanted the last 6 months of archives to display like: November 2002 02 Nov 19: post title 02 Nov 02: post title October 2002 02 Oct 30: post […]

I wanted to be sure to note two sites here that also have good information on the MT Comment Spammers: :: Burningbird's Comment Spam Quick-Fix :: Dive into Mark's Club vs Lojack Solutions

Thanks to Lynda and Jenn there is a way to navigate between next and previous entries only within a category. But there has been many requests on the forums for a way to go between the category archives with next and previous like the date-based archives have. This script will show the linked title of […]
