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 […]

When Movable Type came out with version 2.2, it added a feature for showing the way information on blogs linked together called Trackback. This added a whole great new set of options to the blogging software. With the new version 2.5, Trackback is enhanced by an auto-discovery tool. Auto discovery allows you to link to […]

A lot of people using Skins on their blogs want all of the elements of their journal site to have skins on them. This made a lot of people use Individual Archives as popups so that they could be skinned, too. Unfortunately, with the advent of Trackback in MT2.2, there wasn't a good work-around to […]
