Hi

I want to specify one <CategoryLabel> in <MTEntryCategories> in archive template.

For example my categories are like this (x is selected category in entry):

Fruit --Apple --Grape

Drinks --Coffee -x-Beer --Juice

Vacation --France -x-UK

In this case I want to display the label under "Drinks" in a entry (sample code)

<MTSubCategories category="Drinks">
   <MTEntryCategories>
       <h1><$MTcategory_label$><h1>
   </MTEntryCategories>
</MTSubCategories>

I know there are various plugin that do this but I couldn't find one that supports MT5. If anyone know if there is a way to do this without the plugins, greatly appreciated!

How to make movable type to use relative path

as seen on Stack Overflow - Search for 'Stack Overflow'
Commonly movable type will publish HTML files which contains absolute path, but if I want to host the site under different domain(e.g., both HTTP and HTTPS), it is very inconvenient. So is there a way to change all the paths to resource of my site to absolute ones? Thanks >>> More
