SN Update: Wordpress Wins
As much as I’ve loved Movable Type in the past, it’s time for me to move on. I didn’t mind MT 3 too much, but MT 4 (even though still in beta) isn’t good.
The upload feature looks good at first, but it’s really not. The previous version gave the option to start a new post or get the code which I often used. However the new version does not which means if you want to upload files and have it displayed in assets it’s going to be a huge pain.
On top of that, it decided recently to stop letting people click on the body to write in a post. To fix it you were required to write in a title, save/preview the entry, then go back to write it. Not much fun when you’re trying to get new people to post and they have to jump through hoops to do so. After reinstalling twice the system refused to recognize bold and italics, which was the straw to brake the camels back.
So I’m now using WordPress, Lets hope this works better. Now to start a layout again…
