More Mucking About with Movable Type 4.0 Beta 1

| 0 Comments | 0 TrackBacks

The upgrade process is pretty straightforward, and should get you 75% of the way to transitioning over to Movable Type 4.0.


The other 25% consists of really minor issues, such as:


  • On Windows-based systems, to avoid Error 500 Internal Server Errors, remember to change all the #/usr/bin/perl -w lines on the .cgi files to c:/bin/perl -w (or wherever your perl path is)
  • Creating the new MT4 Modules and Templates and bringing them over to your older installation.
  • Changing the Template Types on the old templates to reflect the correct template type.

Rebuilding appears to take longer than previously.


I've switched everything over to the default templates for MT 4.0 build. The result is a much more vox-like look, which is pretty generic faded boxes look.


The templates, in the way they've been re-organized make editing specific sections easier, which should make re-designs faster.
