No, I have no clue.

I don't know how to check to see if the post is set to true.
Can someone please show me some code to do this?

This will probably be very helpful to me in the future.

I think I might have gotten it working and in the process
I may have found a bug in the current MTBlackList recipe which 
was caused from a PMWiki version change.   I could not see
any message.  I stumbled accross this:

It currently uses 

    $EditMessageFmt 

Which was changed to 

    $MessagesFmt

Version 2.0.beta44 (10-Jul-2005)
    ....
    * Changed $EditMessageFmt to $MessagesFmt array, added (:messages:)
markup. 
    ....

To fix this in mt-blacklist.php I added 2 lines under the 
$EditMessageFmt assignment (near the end of the file):

    global $MessagesFmt;
    $MessagesFmt[] = $EditMessageFmt;



Thanks
