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? 🙂

    Yesterday on my way to Gulfport, I made a stop at the Mississippi Vietnam Memorial in Ocean Springs. Since they build submarines not too far from there, there is also a new submariners memorial on the site. Part of that Memorial lists all the submarines that the US has ever lost and how many men…

    Did we really need another IM service? Of all the many things Google could build with all the IPO money they’ve gotten recently is this really one of the things that should be high on the list? Are they in cahoots with the makers of Trillian, who’s free version won’t work with the Jabber protocol,…

    Yesterday was a big anniversary. I’m sure you’ve heard all about it. It was also a personal anniversary, and while it wasn’t exactly on par with the Wright Brothers in terms of changing the world, it was an important event for me. Yesterday marked 6 years that I’ve been working for this organization. In the…
