Displaying Dates in a Linklist
One thing that surprised me during my redesign was that I was not able to display the date a link was added in my Recent Links list. The link tags built in to Textpattern only allow for the display of the link and its description.
All this changed however in Rev 366 when a global $thislink was added. This global variable exposes all the the elements of the link when using the <txp:linklist /> tag.
So 1 SVN update and 5 whopping lines of code later, I created the rss_link_date plugin so I could display my links’ posting dates.
To be honest, I think this should be standard functionality but until that time, a plugin it is.
Visit rss_link_date at its home to read the full details and download the plugin.
