Textpattern Plugins Repository

This was written in regards to old ferrydust, late October 2004… It has been replaced for ferrydust v2, late April 2005.

This site depends on a heapful of plugins that were crafted and generously made available to and from the textpattern community. Without their efforts and benevolence, much would not be possible, and I am very thankful to them.

The following TextPattern plugins are installed to give this site its extra punches:

1. asy_category_tags to link to categories or show context-sensitive category lists
2. asy_showdate for control over display of the posted date of each entry
3. dru_random_text to display random text from an external page – off
4. mem_glinklist for improved Link Lists
5. rsx_word_count for counting up the words in each post
6. glx_if for an assortment of useful conditional tags
7. akw_date_aware to have the date print once per day rather than for every article
8. zem_link for greater control over permalinks
