Movable Type Plugin directory update

We just pushed out a sizeable update of the Movable Type plugin directory and thought we'd share with you those which are new and updated. Below are links to each with descriptions written in the authors' own words:

• NewEntryTemplate v1
  Categories: Authoring, Built for 3.2, Shortcuts
  Allows setting global or per-blog default content for entry text fields.

• MTIfCommenterEmailIs v1
  Categories: Built for 3.2, Comments/TrackBacks, Community, Email
  This plugin adds a new MovableType conditionnal tag named MTIfCommenterEmailIs. It accepts two arguments: email (mandatory) and trusted. The aim is to recognise a commenter by its email address. If trusted is set to 1 then the comment must also be from an authentified source (typekey for example). You can use MTElse to add some code when the comment is not from the expected source.

• FileSize v1
  Categories: Built for 3.2
  Get the filesize of a file. Accepts inline MT tags.

• LJsubs v1.2
  Categories: Administrative, Authoring, Built for 3.2, Text Formatting
  If you're porting a LiveJournal to MovableType, this will make the transition all the more easier. This MT plugin contains a text filter that translates most LiveJournal-specific tags, and formats your entry according to normal LJ practice. That is, anything inside an lj-raw container gets left alone, and anything outside gets a linebreak appended to the end of each line. Other common LJ tags get translated, too.

• Moderate Via Delay v1.03
  Categories: Anti-spam, Built for 3.2, Comments/TrackBacks
  The plugin has a junk filter that can moderate comments and trackbacks that are submitted a certain amount of time after the original entry was posted, or after the last comment/trackback was posted. You can also flag such comments as junk instead of moderating them, and even scale the junk rating so that it increases the longer the entry has been idle.
