Blogger, MovableType and Wordpress Template Tag Cheat-Sheet

Aaron has posted an excellent reference for anybody interested in editing or migrating templates. In his Template Tag Reference Sheet he cross-references tags between the Blogger, MovableType and Wordpress platforms. Worth bookmarking and coming back to when you needed.

It’s a shame Drupal isn’t in there. Hey Aaron, here are the Drupal equivalents (using PHPTemplate)

“Non-Loop” (page.tpl.php)

  • $base_url
  • $site_name
  • $site_slogan

“Loop” (node.tpl.php)

  • $content
  • $teaser
  • $name
  • $terms

Note: Some of the above variables are not always available, you might need to use variable_get or add to a Global statement
