Textpattern plugin Technorati tags in body
[update: This plugin superceded by ttag]
Plugin ben_tag
Usage: <txp:ben_tag tag="Technorati" />
Insert whatever tag you want in place of Technorati.
Result: This will insert a Technorati tag into the body of your article.
Motivation: I’ve been using a bookmarklet to create Technorati tags for entries. Then I read about a wordpress plugin (thanks to Pietro Speroni di Fenizio) that lets you create technorati tags within the body of an article.
I thought that would be a fine plugin to have for Textpattern.
So off I went to Textpattern.org for a plugin to do this. This is when I became unstuck. I couldn’t find one (if there is, please let me know).
So I read Rob’s Textpattern Plugin How To and using Zem’s Plugin Template Thanks to the simple code example on Rob’s page and the ease wtih which Zem’s template creates a plugin, I was able to figure it out myself.
Enjoy, and leave your comments below.
