Delirium Propaganda

Yesterday I started using the MyblogLog community service on my blog. Well it didn’t take long before I wanted to take things to the nest level. Today I found a nice plugin that enables you to show MyBloglog Avatars next to comments. Basically when someone that has a MyBlogLog account leaves a comment his Avatar will display next to it. For a quick tutorial on how to download and install the plugin please follow the very simple instructions bellow.

Installing

The installation isn’t very complicated but you best follow my instructions because it will save you a lot of headaches.

1- First download the plugin here and then upload the entire archive to your plugin directory.
2- Now you may activate the plugin.
3- Go to Presentation -> Theme editor -> comments to paste the following code.

<?php if(function_exists("MyAvatars")) MyAvatars(); ?>

The code above must be inserted in the comment loop normally after

<?php $count_pings = 1; foreach ($comments as $comment)

If your like me, a very generous person that likes freedom and good sense, there is a way to deactivate the nofollow attribute that comes enables by default.

Open the Myavatar.php file using your favourite text editor or Dreamweaver and change where it says nofollow to dofollow.

<a rel="dofollow" href="<?php echo $mybloglog_URL; ?>" target="_blank" title="<?php echo $mybloglog_TITLE; ?>">
