CatEntries Movable Type Plugin

I really like the CatEntries Plugin. I use it to filter my quicklinks to display certain links in certain places on my weblogs, depending on the assigned categories.

CatEntries 2.8 was released today and now offers some functionality that might be of interest beyond sorting entries by category. From the author "CatEntries 2.8 allows offset with days (that is, offset="3" days="4" means “four days of entries starting three days ago”), and using lastn with days will work as normal for days, but only return at most lastn entries . . . this allows you to (MTCatEntries days="20" offset="7" lastn="3"). At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if you used CatEntries without specifying any categories, just to get better control of the displayed range."
