Colophon

Modules enabled on this copy of Drupal:

The colophon is a list of Drupal modules used to run this site. It’s generated by calling the module_list() method, and iterating over the output, so it’s a live reflection of what’s running right now.

echo '

‘.$amodule.’

‘;
}
echo ‘

‘

/**
// Get current list of modules
$files = system_listing(’\.module$’, ‘modules’, ‘name’, 0);

// Extract current files from database.
system_get_files_database($files, ‘module’);

ksort($files);

foreach ($files as $filename => $file) {
if ($file -> status) {
drupal_get_filename(’module’, $file->name, $file->filename);
drupal_load(’module’, $file->name);

$file->description = module_invoke($file->name, ‘help’, ‘admin/modules#description’);

echo ‘

‘.$file->name.’: ‘.$file->description.’

‘;
}
}

?>

Automatically Updated Colophon

The colophon, listing the various bits that get twiddled to run my blog, has been woefully out of date. I get periodic emails about the various plugins I use, especially the latest Podpress plugin, so I thought it’d be a good idea to automate the process of updating the list. Enter the bdp_setup plugin by Bryan Palmer at ozpolitics.info.

The colophon is now automatically generated, and guaranteed to stay up to date for as long as I’m using Wordpress to run my blog…

Updated Colophon

I get occasional emails asking me about what plugins I use to run this blog. I don’t mind answering them *cough*Alec*ahem* but having an up-to-date colophon might be helpful, too.

I just copied the table from the WordPress plugin manager, trimmed out the “Action” column, and pasted it into the colophon for this blog. I’ve noticed that some plugins provide incorrect or incomplete URLs to the plugin description/download page. I’ll find/fix the links when I get a chance. And no, I’m not turning the colophon into a wiki
