MTAmazon Plugin for Movable Type

Overview

MTAmazon is a plugin for Movable Type that provides template tags for displaying information from Amazon's product catalog.

Important Notice

MTAmazon is no longer maintained as a separate stand alone plugin. Users wishing to integrate Movable Type with Amazon should use Media Manager (which MTAmazon comes bundled with).

History

  • MTAmazon was originally written by Adam Kalsey. As I developed Media Manager I wished to make changes and Adam allowed me to take over development of his plugin.
  • I initially renamed and repackaged MTAmazon for Movable Type 3.2 and thought it clever to name the software MTAmazon32. I have since regretted that decision as it only has led to confusion about the difference between MTAmazon and MTAmazon32. In truth there is little difference.
  • Later I found that most users wishing to use MTAmazon, really desired the functionality of Media Manager which made great use of MTAmazon's functionality. To simplify the installation of Media Manager, I began to bundle MTAmazon with Media Manager, which I continue to do todat.

Latest Documentation

Below is the documentation for the version of MTAmazon that ships with Media Manager.
