Movable Type upgrade

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Yes I did, finally, upgrade the Child Abuse blog to MT 3.11. I listed the reasons why over on that site, so I won’t get into all the details of comment spam again over here. The upgrade was pretty painless, and the upgrade of MT-Blacklist wasn’t too bad either. Both allow for a lot more flexibility, which I like. What I don’t like is how absolutely horrible the MT admin pages look in Firefox! The site itself looks fine but logging into the MT install brings me to a page that is really hard to navigate. Is that common or have I fudged something up?

(Update 10/7 -This morning the admin pages look fine in Firefox, go figure!)

BTW is it ironic that the spellcheck extension I got for Firefox, doesn’t recognize Firefox as a word? 🙂
