We've Got Movable Type!

It's up! I just made a tarball of my MT test site, scp'd it up to my server, unpacked it, fiddled with permissions and Apache options a bit, and viola!

If you're reading this in IE, though, it's not my fault!

Update: Then I ran into errors in MT, ended up deleting the whole thing, installing 2.64, reimporting all my entries, re-adding my plugins, fiddling with my templates and stylesheets to get them working again... It could have gone smoother.

1 It looks great (although I miss the pink kitties) except for the sidebars, scrolling thing, etc.--but since I have IE does that mean I can't use Moveable Type? Or if I do it will look funny to you?

And the comments didn't transfer! Will you be keeping both sites going for awhile? Or should I change my links?


By the way, Blogger is down again, which is why I am filling your new comments boxes with addled prose. If it stays down I may start on the addled poetry.....

2 I'm working on the IE problems. It's not inherent in Movable Type, it's just the particular layout I decided to use, which IE doesn't seem very happy with. (Of course, it works perfectly in every browser except the one that 90% of people use.)

I'll transfer the comments if you like - I just have to do it manually. MT can pick up all your posts from Blogger, but both my comment box and yours are separate thingies that MT knows nothing about.

I won't be updating the old site any more, so please do change your links. I'll have to get this IE problem fixed pronto. (Smacks IE over the head.) I'm running at 1024x768 right now, so I can see the problem (at least, I get the horizontal scroll bar), but making the appropriate changes to the stylesheet doesn't help

Feel free to comment to your hearts content while I wrestle with the forces of darkness

3 IE is not so much a web browser as an evil energy creature from another universe. It's the only possible explanation for the way it behaves. Augh!

4 I think I've beaten it! Hahahaha! I also now know how to stabilise the layout under Mozilla with extreme font sizes. Yay me! (Dies.)
