Mood

Is there a plugin for posting your mood. I searched and didn’t find one.

Re: Mood

Couldn’t you just use one of the custom fields for that? It doesn’t really seem to me that one would need a plugin for that…

Re: Mood

Go to the admin tab, click the “Advanced Preferences” button. Scroll down and you’ll see a list where you can enter names for up to ten custom fields. Call the first one “Mood”, and save the preferences. Now, when you go to write an article, click the “Advanced Options” link and you’ll see a box labeled “Mood”. Type in whatever you want, write your article as normal, and publish.

Then, in your article form, add this wherever you want that to show up: <txp:custom_field name="Mood" />.
