OK whatever…moving to WordPress
At the moment I’m mostly just annoyed by having to remember the very minimal CSS that I’d once figured out as well as trying to comprehend yet another theming system. But I achieved the two basic things I wanted: post … Continue reading
WP test blog working fairly well now
It was pretty quick and simple to import from my MT blog export. I really need to do some theme/css tweeking. And set up a little photoblog roll in the front page. I think my MT archives/links are going to … Continue reading

More MovableType upgrade fixes
Poking further I’ve found I didn’t have archive mappings post MT upgrade and have created them. And I re-undid their silly default file permissions. I see they’ve changed from using underscores to dashes for multiword files/directories. So there’s a bunch … Continue reading
