I am creating a plugin and have an external cronjob to run it, how do i test if the plugin is disabled via provided perl APIs.

Appreciate any help.

    my $plugin = MT->component('mypluginid');
    if ($plugin) {
    # plugin is installed and enabled
    } else {
    # plugin is disabled or not installed
    }

    The 'mypluginid' is what the plugin defines as its 'id' element in the registry.

  • Thanks Kevin.

If you need to share template code, replace all the "<" signs with "&lt;" or use this utility.
