The Playground

It's been a while since I posted on this site and that's because this blog only deals with Movable Type 3.3. My main site has been upgraded to MT 3.5 and since the release of version 4 this blog has become obsolete for my needs. (I'm sure there's plenty of people of out there who are still using 3.3 and may find the posts here interesting though.)

I have set up a couple of blogs with version 4 and am finding that the range of plugins available now has made it more attractive for an upgrade from 3.5. Since I have 8 blogs on the 3.5 install, there's lots of work to do to get the templates to work correctly and I'm not ready to do that just yet. Version 4 is so different from previous releases that it's turning into quite a challenge to learn how edit the templates. The stylesheets are very different too and editing the new ones to look like the old themes will needs lots of free time and clear thinking.
