Global Listings 2.0.2
January 3, 2003
- updated February 8, 2006
(Download)
This plugin allows you to list Entries, Comments, Categories and TrackBack pings across multiple blogs within one MovableType installation.
Important: If you want a page that contains <MTGlobal…> tags to be correctly rebuilt every time you update an entry or comment in a related blog, you must use the same template in each of the blogs. The easiest way to do this is to link the template to a file. All the affected blogs should link to the same file, so that you only have to edit it in one place.

That “visible” fix was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks! -

I modified Globalisting.pl with the changes you mentionned, but junked comments are still count as having updated an entry, therefore screwing with my “recently-commented on” feature. Any other idea? Thanks -

To fix the “recently_commented_on” proble, you’ll have to modify the plugin, by adding visible => 1 on line 176:
Instead of:
{ 'sort' => 'created_on',
direction => 'descend',
unique => 1,
limit => $n } ];
it should say
{ 'sort' => 'created_on',
direction => 'descend',
visible => 1,
unique => 1,
limit => $n } ];

I just upgraded to MT 3.34, and when I try to rebuild an index that uses this plugin, I get “Can’t use string (“”) as a HASH ref while “strict refs” in use at lib/MT/Sanitize.pm line 54.”
