[Request] Plugin for tagging the posts

[PurpleCow]

Hi,

Lately tagging has been widely used by many net users and it would definetly be a good idea to have some kind of features like letting the reader of the post tag/bookmark it to either digg/delico.us/technorati(cosmos)/...give an ability to submit to slashdot and likewise.

For an example take a look at posting here ....

Can someone help us with it ???

don't you just link to them? i know russel uses those technorati tags all over the place - maybe you can find out how to do it on his page.

Yes, technorati-Links are just links that could be put into your entries.tpl template. But of course the tagging plugin could also include those.

If anyone gives me the links that are required, I'll patch it into the freetag plugin.

For technorati tags, all that is required it to use a special rel tag. For eg f you want to tag FLASH this is how the link should look like

Code: Select all

<a href="http://technorati.com/tag/FLASH" rel="tag" title="view the technorati tag : FLASH">FLASH</a>

offcourse you can add a technorati image next to it as well like below

Code: Select all

<img src="http://technorati.com/pix/icn-talkbubble.gif" width="11px" height="10px" border="0" alt="view the technorati tag : FLASH" />

For Technorati Search, you link it like this

Code: Select all

<a href="http://technorati.com/cosmos/search.html?url=POST_URL><img src="http://technorati.com/pix/icn-talkbubble.gif">Technorati</a>

For getting the digg link

Code: Select all

<a href="http://www.digg.com/submit" target="_new"><img src="/digman.gif" >Digg it</a>

you will need to download the digg favicon and insert the image

Pretty easy to add to ur entried.tpl. let me do that and I'll post it here.

one more thing. the {entry.link} smarty tag doesn't have the whole url. I'm using

Code: Select all

http://technorati.com/cosmos/search.html?url={$entry.link}

and it shows this

Code: Select all

http://technorati.com/cosmos/search.html?url=/index.php?/archives/30-MSN-a-cuss-word.html

it doesn't have my host name (http://myschizobuddy.com/). Any ideas. I know i can add it manually, but that will make it url specific. IS there is a smarty tag that has the complete url.

IS it possible not to include the tags on the main page and only show them in extended entry
