  • Auto-Link Recoded

    in plugin: I wanted [AutoLink][1] to be what the now-defunct [QuickLink][2] was, a complete replacement alternative. I take text mytext and I get something like this:

    <a href="someurl" title="URL Title" target="_blank">My Expanded Text</a>.
    AutoLink doesn’t do that. You have to make changes to: create.tmpl; CMS.pm and Plugin.pm to achieve this.

  • Default Category Plugin

    in plugin: So I was bashing my head against a wall trying to figure out how best to specify a default category for all posts — one to which, if no category was specified, a post would be assigned, particularly in a multiblog environment.

  • Field Day: Custom Fields on Steroids

    in plugin: Field Day is a plugin for Movable Type that lets you add more fields to the MT interface. How is it different from MT’s built-in “Commercial Pack” implementation of custom fields?

    • You can define fields for templates, assets, comments, and blogs, as well as system-wide fields.
    • Linked object field types let you connect any supported object type to any other.
    • By organizing fields into groups and allowing multiple instances of each group, you can allow users to associate an unlimited amount of data with a given object.
