Great tutorial, however I still think there is space for something on a non-JS based version, using folders instead of categories, and also publishing a template set with all this included.

A full CMS template set would be a dream!

Everyone who previously purchased Movable Type 4.0 and 4.1 Commercial License will automatically be upgraded to Movable Type 4.2 under the same terms, but without the community features. But also, those folks will also be offered a free upgrade to Movable Type Pro 4.2 with the community features. Users are free to download and install MT Pro provided that they accept the new terms of service associated with this update. Given that our licensing terms now include a limit of 5000 profiles, we didn't want to put anyone in a position where by virtue of our releasing new software and them upgrading, they would be in a position where all of a sudden they would be in violation of their terms of service. That would be bad -- a lesson we learned long ago. So we decided to give everyone an option to continue using Movable Type Commercial under their existing terms, while still being able to take advantage of all the security and performance enhancements we had made to the core. While also giving them an option to MT Pro under new terms. That is why customers see two products in their account: Movable Type 4.2 Commercial License, and Movable Type Pro 4.2.

In summary, I am very sorry you had problems upgrading, but I assure you it does not appear to be the norm, leading me to believe that something has gone wrong with your account. Please let me know how I can help.

Because I paid for MT Pro, and the features now available in the free blogger licensed version of MT 4.2 were not included in the version of MT Pro that I purchased, I will now have to download and install the free version of MT (after I have already had 4.2 Pro upgraded). Do you understand how ridiculous this is? Did anyone at MT even consider what you were doing to your paying customers by doing things this way? Do you have any idea how thoughtless and ... I see that MT is trying to go more open source and more user-friendly, but these are your paying customers and they are being punished for buying a license from you. It makes absolutely no sense. Please consider why you are doing things this way and the message it sends to your paying customers.

There are also a number of themes we haven't released because they are still in development. These can all be found in subversion. Their names are:

• Vanilla - a TS for demonstration and documentation purposes
• MTDefaultTemplateSet - this contains the 4.1 template set that is really modular, and an MT3 compatible template set

Others include:

• Photo Gallery - available from majordojo.com

More are coming though. Just be patient! :)

Quick question since I've just seen an image in your post... a previous post mentioned that when uploading an image to a folder when making an entry, there is a default thumbnail option selection.

I don't see that option when I upload an image so was wondering if there is a specific plugin which I need to install and if so, which one?

Thanks Matt

I have some styles that I converted from WordPress here if you are interested in looking for other ideas.
