To be honest, I’m VERY disgusted with this book – I just purchased it this afternoon, started to read it and went to the web site that was supposed to contain plugins and other materials from the book, only to find that it is essentially an EMPTY site! The site is located at:
There is no reason that this book has been out for such a long time and yet there is still no real site! On top of that, one of the authors even touts that this bogus site is “coming soon.” That’s right, Jay Allen announces on his own blog that: “Hacking Movable Type (which has a ‘coming-soon’ companion website, hackingmt.com) is finally out and it’s even more fantastic than I remember.” That post is located at:

He made that post on August 18, 2005 and it’s now the middle of April 2006. Frankly, I’m disgusted and can not recommend this book if the authors and publisher (Wiley) are so dishonest.
