In MT, Output the title and permalink of an entry on the "Recent Incoming TrackBack Pings"!

*in Japanese

In the default function of Movable Type, when displaying "Recent Incoming Trackback Pings", it cannot indicate which entry was pinged.

That's why I created "MTPingedEntry plug-in" which outputs the Title and Permalink of an entry on the "Recent Incoming Trackback Pings".

When this plug-in is used, you can know which entry is connected with a incoming trackback ping (See the next image).

TO INSTALL:

First, Download one of the following files.

-> mt-pingedentry.zip
-> mt-pingedentry.tar.gz


Next, Unpack it. Then, 'mt-pingedentry.pl' will be created.
Place 'mt-pingedentry.pl' in your plugins/ directory.

i.e.-> (MT root directory)/plugins/mt-pingedentry.pl


Finally, Add the following code to 'Main Index Template(index.html)'.

Example:

<div class="sidetitle">
Recent TrackBack Pings
</div>

<div class="side">
<MTPings lastn="10">
<MTPingedEntry>
<a href="<$MTPingedEntryLink$>">Re: <$MTPingedEntryTitle$></a>
</MTPingedEntry><br />
-&gt; <$MTPingDate format="%m/%d %X"$> <a href="<$MTPingURL$>" title="<$MTPingTitle$>" target="_blank">from <$MTPingBlogName$></a><br />
</MTPings>
</div>

MTPingedEntry plug-in provides the following tags:

<MTPingedEntry>...</MTPingedEntry>: Container tag, which outputs the title and permalink of an entry on the "Recent Incoming TrackBack Pings". Surely used in conjunction with <MTPings> tag.

<$MTPingedEntryLink$>: The URL of the entry which is pinged from a weblog. Used in conjunction with <MTPingedEntry> tag.

<$MTPingedEntryTitle$>: The title of the entry which is pinged from a weblog. Used in conjunction with <MTPingedEntry> tag.


Supposing you find a bug, please report it to me. Thank you!
