I've upgraded my blog to MT3. It seems to work. I still have to pound on the templates a bit, but when is that not the case?
The only thing it doesn't do (yet) is update the "New on MuNu" list here. I'll fix that soon.
If anyone else is interested in upgrading, just say the word.*
* "Retromingent".
Posted by Pixy Misa at December 13, 2004 05:34 AMSure, I would like to give it a try. I am goin' for a new look anyway, so might as well do it now, right?
Posted by Tig at December 13, 2004 06:49 AMYep. The only hard thing about moving to MT3 is that some of the template tags have changed, so your old layout might not work. Other than that, it's really easy.
Posted by Pixy Misa at December 13, 2004 07:38 AMI'm scared. I recall something about you and Rob having to do something spooky to get my skins to work. Something to make .html files act like .php files?
I'm afraid of what I'll break when I move up.
Oh, but I DO SO want to move up.
Posted by Jim at December 13, 2004 02:31 PMIf we just change your .html files to be .php files, then there'd be no problem!
In fact, there's no problem anyway, as that's configured for your domain rather than tied to your blog. If that makes sense...
Posted by Pixy Misa at December 13, 2004 02:35 PMI'd like to muve and I'm saying the word: "retromingent!"
Posted by Daniel at December 13, 2004 03:40 PMDaniel wins a prize!
I'll get all of you set up tonight.
Posted by Pixy Misa at December 14, 2004 02:21 AMHey, i'd like to give it a try. Is it possible to mess around on a practice site first?
Posted by annika at December 14, 2004 04:19 AMSet me up!
Heck, I might need to start from scratch again, anyway.
Posted by Tig at December 14, 2004 04:57 AMI'll get you all set up with test blogs now, and you can go live when you are ready.
Posted by Pixy Misa at December 14, 2004 12:48 PMRetromingent all around! For King of the Blogs and Speiro to sir, if you please.
Posted by Nick Queen at December 14, 2004 04:28 PMI noticed no-one has said "Retromingent please". Us Australians are so polite.
Can I test it out please oh great Pixy...
Posted by Simon at December 15, 2004 06:25 AMUmmmm. Retromingent. Please.
I was planning to scrap the look altogether so this might be a good time.
Posted by Ozguru at December 17, 2004 01:58 AMI had to look up "retromingent"...can't wait to drop it into conversation. Besides here, I mean.
So Pixy, is there a place I can do a test MT3, so I can make sure my templates work before I try to move up?
Thank you so much, and happy holidays!
