The plugin <txp:mg_commentor_name />
is identical to the stock txp comment_name
tag, but this plugin puts a title on the link to the commentor’s website.
The plugin <txp:mg_recent_comments />
makes a few small changes to the stock recent_comments
tag offered in Textpattern. The link is given a title and the commentor’s name appears.
The plugin <txp:mg_page_title />
is identical to the stock txp page_title
tag, but it reverses the post name and site name on permanent link pages.
The plugin <txp:mg_comments_count />
returns the number of comments on a post followed by the word of your choice. It’s a simple plugin that adds some user friendliness to comment display.
The plugin <txp:mg_txpversion />
simply returns the version of your current Textpattern installation. You can use this in the head of your pages or in your RSS feed.
The plugin <txp:mg_setheader />
allows one to change/specify the header for any textpattern page. By default, textpattern delivers section pages as text/html. This plugin can be used to serve up a valid RSS feed from a standard page template.
This tutorial is aimed at those who wish to publish an iTunes-friendly audio podcast with Textpattern. It’s skued towards an audio broadcast, but with a few mods you can rig it for video as well. I wrote this tutorial because I felt that there was not a single comprehensive, easy-to-follow tutorial on the process of creating and publishing a podcast with Textpattern. It should be noted that there are much easier ways to publish a podcast than this (i.e. feedburner and libsyn are two services that make it easy). This tutorial is also aimed at the control freaks: Those who like to have fine-grained control over everything they publish. This document will show you how to generate a proper podcast feed, and how to set up an audio player so that visitors to your site can listen to streaming audio of your episodes.
