Blosxom Plugin Registry
Blosxom is about infinitely extensible via a plugin architecture. Here you'll find oodles of plugins to expand, extend, integrate, and delight. And they're written by Blosxom users just like you!Have a Blosxom Plug-in to share with the Blosxom community? Plug it in here!
- archives - Replaces $archives::archives with a tree of years and months and the number of posts in each.
- flatarchives - modification of archives plugin that generates a flat list of months with posts in them
- login - Allows you to create usernames and passwords to gain access to certain parts of your site
- login2 - An alteration of the login plugin. This adds functionality which provides automatic logout after x minutes of inactivity. Note: not an option, but a function.
- author - Allows a "meta-author:" tag to specify an author for each entry. A default author can also be used if no tag is present. This is my first attempt writing anything in perl..
- fauxami - Provides the "name" of the person posting the weblog entry, using anything before a specified delimiter ( the default is . ) as the "name". So, jack.story1.txt would yield a $fauxami::name of jack and jill.story2.txt would yield a $fauxami::name of jill.
- whoami - provides username and full name for each story; useful for group Blosxom blogs
- clicktrack - writes URLs in your stories to go through a 302 redirect script so you can log clicks on your blog that go offsite
- uainclude - include specific content in the <head> section of a page, based on the User-Agent of the user's browser
- calendar - builds a classic weblog calendar with days linked to archived postings

- followsymlinks - Treats Symbolic links as categories.
- date_fullname - Purpose: Populates $date_fullname::dw (day of the week) and $date_fullname::mo (month name) with full day and month names, respectively
- date_translate - translates day of the week and month name into the language of your choice
- metadate - Lets you put metadates in an external file. Lets you specify metadates for directories or non-story files.
- timestamp - Provides timestamps, as formattable strings or as Julian day numbers, for each story for inclusion in its display. Can use the cache from entries_index if available.
- timezone - Causes the Blosxom timestamps to reflect a specific timezone that is
- timezone - Allows Blosxom to use a different timezone from the server. Also exports the timezone and GMT offset for use in flavors.

- better_title - makes a title including category path or date (day month year) available for use in titling weblog page
- binary - Cause Blosxom to see if the URL requested actually exists on the filesystem. If it does, then return the file, and then exit the script allowing for binary file serves. If the file does not exist, then the Bloxsom script will continue noting whether it needs to do a flavour translation on the data file, etc. The convienience of this is that when you wish to include an image or anything besides just the blog entry, you can place the file in the same directory as your text file, and reference it with a $url$path.
- blacklist - This plugin allows you to create a blacklist file ( and a whitelist ) for your weblog that allows you to specify certain IP addresses that simply receive a 404 message making it appear as if your site is no longer there. You may wish to alter this to give a 410 message, if you like.
- blogroll - builds a blogroll out of OPML files
- blogshares - Purpose: Fetches blog shares info from blogshares.com via XML API and

- moreentries - Creates 'Next' and 'Previous' links when there are more entries than allowed on a page (as determined by the Blosxom config variable $num_entries). This doesn't affect date-style urls, since Blosxom ignores $num_entries for date urls. Great for search results (tested with 'find' plugin). Also provides template variables for showing which posts numbers are being displayed, etc. NOTE: This version is probabaly not compatible with Static rendering.
- netflix - Lets you share the contents of your netflix queue or the list of movies you have checked out
- now_playing - This plugin uses Trackback pings to populate $now_playing::last with the last few songs you've played in Winamp. It requires Benn Trott's tb.cgi implementation of Trackback and the DoSomething Winamp plugin.

- bookmarklet - Adds blosxom bookmarklet for wikieditish.
- wikieditish - Edit a Blosxom blog wiki-style, from right in the browser. Plays nicely with wikiwordish, tiki, and textile plug-ins. Features: password protection, ip-based protection, and preservation of last modified date/time stamp -- all optional, of course. [**EXPERIMENTAL FOR NOW**]
- cvsignore - Allows .cvsignore files be used to ignore certain files or directories in much the same way as cvs does.

- svn - pulls entries from a subversion repository. preserves created date and populate last modified date.
- xmlrpcfilter - Pass blog content through filters on remote servers via an XML-RPC filter API

- config - override Blosxom's inline configuration settings on a per-directory, per-flavour, and per-directory-per-flavour basis (experimental!); see here for a more detailed explanation
- crop_path - crop_path shortens the blosxom path variable to the last n parts. This is useful on pages showing multiple categories sorted by path, like this plugin registry.
- flavourdir - Keep your flavours in a separate flavour directory rather than alongside all of your weblog entries.
- fullcategory - Fixes a bug [feature ;-)] in blosxom so full category names are required (partial names will no longer work)
- functions - write arbitrary functions for stories. Easily extended.
- gzip - compress blosxom output with gzip encoding
- keywords - This plugin extracts marked keywords form the individual stories and inserts them, sorted by frequency and weight, into the keywords meta-tag.
- logger - This plugin lets you store cgi variables (user agent, referrer, etc.) in a log text file. You configure which variables to track, as well as column separator character. Bug reports and constructive criticism welcome-- I am a Perl newbie.
- multiblosxom - Loads up external config files based on the name of the Blosxom script when executed. Useful when combined with symlinks on Unix.
- pluginfo - makes information about your currently running Blosxom plug-ins available to your flavour templates
- prefs - An alternative to the config plugin which has the advantage of correctly handling static rendering.
- publish - Produces the meta tag 'expires' with a value that indicates the numer of seconds to preserve the page. After this time the page must be refreshed and not served from a proxy server cache. Allowing frequently updated pages to show up immediately in the browser without a manual refresh.
- redirect - This plugin allows you to redirect obsolete url's on your site to the new url (useful for keeping search engines up to date, as well as visitors). Especially handy when you upgrade and remove the "/weblog" or "blosxom.cgi" bit at the beginning of your urls.
- relative_dir - Allows you to use relative data directory
- strip_unix_comments - Remove any line beginning with a # character.
- subflavour - It's a very simple plugin based on Rael's flavourdir plugin. It automatically displays the writeback subflavour for the story chunk on individual stories by default. What this means is that it looks for a file called story.htmlwriteback in flavour_dir to use as the template for the story portion of this page if the current flavour is html and if an individual story has been requested. It also has the added bonus of allowing you to specify any subflavour for any chunk (head, date, foot, etc) based on $blosxom::path_info. For instance, I use it to display different story and date templates for my /links section, similar to the way the plugin registry works. The only difference being that the flavour-proper has not changed, and the reader always sees the same url. Not even a query string. That's what I like about it.
- test -
- theme - Build themes or use those built by others for your Blosxom-powered weblog.
- twikirender - Uses a local TWiki installation to render blog entries.

- vhost - Enable different vhosts to have different a datadir in order to allow multiple weblogs without having ugly urls.
- wordcount - After subtracting plaintext from your stories, counts the number of words in the plain text that's left. The wordcount is then available to you in $wordcount::wordcount. This plugin relies on the plain_text plugin for plain-text extraction.
- cookies - Provides basic cookie functionality for use by any number of Blosxom plug-ins.
- lastmodified - The 'lastmodified' plugin adds a 'last-modified' header to your blog. This should help enable smarter feed-readers to not pull your blog every time they check (I'm getting spotty behavior from Apache, it may take detecting HEAD requests from inside blosxom).
- xhtml - Sends "Content-Type" of "application/xhtml+xml" to browsers who support it and "text/html" to those that don't (IE).
- isp - designed for the ISP looking to provide Blosxom weblogs to all of its users, this plugin traps URLs of the form /~username/weblog, setting an appropriate user-specific data directory
- autoimg - Converts simple text tags to HTML hrefs and img tags.
- gallery - Another gallery plugin that generates a nice gallery page using a custom flavour.
- galleryref - insert image tags for gallery galleries
- iconset - Allows you to override the icon chose by the icon plugin on a per-story basis, though it can also be used on it's own.

- imagesizer - adds width and height tags to your story images
- meta_image - Takes a "meta-imgurl" and "meta-imgalt" tag from a post entry, and generates the html, suitable for displaying said picture with a story.
- randomimage - Utilizes Gallery system and pulls random images from it, and links to Gallery's albums, etc.
- file - loads the contents of files into variables for use in your Blosxom flavour templates
- include - includes files and the results of commands [possible security implications!]
- entries_cache - A variation on entries_index, this plugin caches your story index to speed up processing on blosxom sites with a large # of stories. Also caches file modification times, just like entries_index
- entries_index - preserves original creation timestamp on weblog entries, allowing for editing of entries without altering the original creation time
- entries_index_tagged - This is a hack of Rael's entries_index plugin which forces story dates to a value found within the files themselves (in a meta-tag), if found. Otherwise it just falls back to the default behavior for the original plugin. This is useful if you upload your stories to a remote webserver via FTP.
- mtime_cache_filter - This is a reimplementation of index_entries that uses the 'filter' hook instead of 'entries', so it will play nicely with search plugins or other plugins that override 'entries'.
- Blog Post - This allows you to post blogs to Blosxom using a standard browser. You can specify the folder to create it in, move files from one folder to another, allow users to respond to blogs and pages on your site using a respond command, delete blogs from a browser, be notified by email when blogs are posted and more.

- metaweblog4bloxsom - A metaWeblog API implementation for bloxsom. It lacks support for mulituser, media upload and login/password (but this should not be hard to add, I use webserver basic authentication for this).
- param - Use variables to access param data.
- poll - Provides public polls which can be placed in the header or footer templates,
- Pollxn - Lets visitors post discussion comments about stories on your blog site. Requires no database, Javascript, or cookies -- just a small (8K) Perl CGI that runs on your web server. Can be customized via template flavors to control how discussion pages look for tight integration with your blog. Use Pollxn stand-alone, or add the optional plug-in for Blosxom that dynamically displays number of comments per blog story.
- prettycomment - Rids the world of the writeback comments plural and allows specific strings for 0, 1 and more than 1 writebacks. ie: for 0 writebacks, it could be, "0 comments (why not post the first comment?)" or for 1 writeback, "1 comment (add another!)"
- proc2blog - Inserts an entry in your blossum blog from an incoming email using procmail. Uses a secret subject for authentication, so its not really
- seewritebacks - Makes it easy to enable writebacks on multiple flavors for your site

- sxtem - Standalone Ruby-based Blogger API implementation for Bloxsom.
- trackback_counts_display - Incorporates TrackBack counts into Blosxom flavours.
- wbnotify - Sends an email to specified address when a new writeback is entered. Needs writeback plugin.
- writeback - Provides Blosxom weblogs with WriteBacks, a combination of comments and TrackBacks.
- writeback-notify - A six-line hack of the original writeback plugin that provides for email notification of new comments. The hack does not effect the performance of the original writeback plugin.
- purple - Integrates blosxom with PurpleWiki. This means support for Wiki text formatting, WikiWord linking, and purple numbers.
- interpolate_conditional - Conditionally include bits of text and template variable values in templates.
- interpolate_fancy - Overrides Blosxom's far simpler to use, but more limited, default interpolate() subroutine. Perform actions (i.e. call plug-in subroutines) at any point in your page, whether to act on current content and return results or no. Include bits of text and template variable values in templates, either conditionally or unconditionally. Conditions include: defined, undefined, equal to, not equal to, less than, greater than, like and unlike (regex).

- linksused - It takes each story's links and populates $linksused::linksused with them.
- macrolinks - replaces custom <google> style HTML tags with links to the associated site
- magiclink - Featureful HTML link generator, based on a simple/natural syntax. Useful for easily linking to sites, searches (google, terms), and online store items (amazon with pics). Several targets are pre-configured, and others can be added.
- mailto - creates creates a mailto URL with the subject line properly provided for use in flavour templates
- permalink - Generates permalinks for you so you can use a consistent link format throughout your site
- permapath - Substitutes the '/' in the $path for '_' so it will be suitable for using as an anchor tag
- personLink - Jon Udell, in one article, expressed the notion that you can get a sense of what two people's relationships are with each other merely by feeding their names into Google. To this end, this plugin will match names in a list set in a meta-: variable to the contents of a post, and the first match is transformed into a Google query with the post author's name and the matched name.

- refer - This plugin is a port of the refer.php code from Refer
- referer - Populates $referer::recent with the most recent referrers to your blog. It orders the list by number of hits referred and is smart enough to combines hits different referrers but from the same domain. It won't detect hits from the domain on which your blog is hosted so that usres don't see your obsessive reloading of your page. It also has the ability to let you specify pretty names for the blogs that connect to you so users see links to Bob's Blog instead of bob_blog.com or whatnot.
- macros - highly generalized macros plugin; can do everything macrolinks can do, as well as several other less-general plugins. Modelled on the widely-used MT-Macros.
- cvsinfo - Fills variables with CVS keyword values and strips unix-like comments.
- meta - Populates the $meta namespace with variables corresponding to meta tags (e.g. meta-username:douglas) found in the "header" (anything before a blank line) of a weblog post
- rating - For stories specifying a meta-rating value (using the meta plug-in), this plug-in generates numerical, textual, star, and graphical representations of said rating for use in a flavour template.
- storystate - Storystate provides a number of convenience variables for use with the interpolate_fancy plugin by Blosxom author Rael Dornfest. It was designed to be especially useful with writeback. Storystate also allows presence of a meta-writeback tag to control if writebacks are open or closed. It's basically useless without interpolate_fancy.
- autotrack - Automatic or semi-automatic trackback pinging
- blosxom2lj - Writes unchanged entries to livejournal.
- ping_weblogs_com - notifies weblogs.com that your weblog has been updated
- ping_weblogs_com_xmlrpc - Notifies weblogs.com [http://www.weblogs.com] and other sites

- wordscramble - Scrambles the words in your Blosxom blog. This is a stupid trick, but you might like it as an example of using Inline::Python inside a Blosxom plugin. Includes a deferred-til-runtime binding to lower low overhead.
- sort_by_name - Sort your entries by file name (instead of by date)
- sort_by_path - Sorts Weblog entries by path rather than in the default reverse-chronological order.

- necho-flavour - This zip file contains a set of Blosxom flavour files that implement a syndicated feed in the new syndication format that is currently called Echo but that will eventually called something else. The spec is prerelease, so this implementation should be regarded as a proof-of-concept rather than as a finished product.
- rss10 - provides the extra bit of programming needed to produce a valid RSS 1.0 feed for syndication
- rss30 - hack of rss10 to output RSS 3.0. uses flavour files.
