Blog redesign, episode 7

Yet another use­ful plu­gin: Com­pare. It allows you to do those sim­ple lit­tle com­par­isons; did you make the com­ment, is the cat­e­gory ‘Tech’ etc.

So I’ve pre­pared my Stuff cat­e­gory for some addi­tional styling and the com­ments for dis­play­ing whether I par­tic­i­pated or not. For now I’ve just put in placeholders.

After upload­ing the sin­gle file, all you need to do is slap the tags around what­ever you want dis­played and putting in the val­ues of your check.

For instance, to dis­play a sin­gle line of text on top of every com­ment made by you:

<MTIfEqual a="[MTCommentAuthor]" b="yourname">
 <p>This comment was posted by yours truly...</p>
</MTIfEqual>
