Provides the template variables: * $potd::potd -- the URL to the POTD * $potd::potd_source -- permalink to the entry containing the POTD =head1 VERSION 0.01 =head1 Customization =head2 Configuration variables C<$image_pattern> is a regular expression used to pick images which may be candidates for the POTD. The intent is typically to restrict to images hosted in the same URL space as the blog, although the default is simply any file with a jpg, jpeg, or gif suffix. C<$from_pattern> and C<$to_pattern> are used to transform the original url of the image in order to generate the POTD. This would typically be used if you want to display full-size images in the main blog and thumbnails for the POTD. If either pattern is undef, no transformation will be done C<$cache_expire> is the frequency with which to pick a new POTD. The default is 1 day. This can be set to 0 to disable caching and pick a new image for each request. C<$debug_level> can be set to a value between 0 and 5; 0 will output no debug information, while 5 will be very verbose. The default is 1, and should be changed after you've verified the plugin is working correctly. =head1 AUTHOR Kevin Scaldeferri (kevin+blosxom at scaldeferri dot com) L =head1 BUGS Probably; address bug reports and comments to me or to the Blosxom mailing list L. =head1 TODO =over =item * Support date-based permalinks =item * make img tag parsing more robust =item * provide potd_alt containing any alt text for the image =back =head1 Giving Credit The basic concept for this plugin was stolen from Tim Bray's "Ongoing", L =head1 LICENSE POTD Blosxom Plug-in Copyright 2005, Kevin Scaldeferri This code is released under the same license as Perl, namely the Artistic License: L.
