The most excellent Gavin of Kode Koan just got me an incredibly simple one-liner fix for MTLJPost, an MT plugin that cross-posts MT to LiveJournal (MT 3.x broke it.)
If you read me there, you can see it works again!
This fix is cake – in your MT install, edit this file:
[MT Root]/plugins/MTLJPost/MTLJPost.pl
Change this line:
$t->param(‘TRACKBACKCOUNT’, $entry->trackback_count);
to
$t->param(‘TRACKBACKCOUNT’, $entry->ping_count);
And that’s it. It should start working.
Thanks, Gavin!
Yes! Yes! Yes!
I was just yesterday thinking “I need some way to cross-post MT to livejournal. Perhaps a plugin, or a script or something. I’ll be its already been done.” but then because I am lazy and I have a zillion other things to do I thought “maybe the solution to this problem will magically fall from the sky.”
Hooray!
YES!
And as i promised, I’ll look into how hard it’ll be to upgrade the whole thing for a new release that is using all 3.33′s new features..
That’ll probably be the final version though

Hey, Laura, ain’t it bitchin’ when shit like that just falls in your lap?
Gavin, thanks, brutha. I gotta talk to SixApart about getting that built into MT; now that they own LJ it seems like an obvious choice, just a check box and away we go.
Just for record, since this is near the top for searching for MTLJPost
I updated and released 1.9.3
Works with both 3.2 and 3.3
