Improving Movable Type Documentation

Since the launch of Movable Type 3.2, the team has moved nearly all of their efforts to processing help tickets and answering customers' questions as well as working on editing the the Movable Type User Manual. We're thrilled to have so much feedback, as the response indicates just what an overwhelming number of downloads we've had of the new version.

As many of you may know, the new manual is a complete rewrite of our documentation and because of that, we're still working to bring it up to the high standard that both you and we expect. We've been incorporating many users' suggestions left in the comments on each article but there is a lot more to do. In particular the upgrade documentation and the context-sensitive help pages (which can be reached from the question marks in the application) are the most needy and are being worked on presently. We appreciate your patience while we make these updates.

We also wanted to point out, for those of you who may have missed it, that the excellent, searchable Knowledge Base is available now to all users. Like the user manual, each entry has comments enabled and we will be either publishing those or incorporating the suggestions directly into the entries themselves. Some of the most requested knowledge base articles of late are:

• Upgrade Script Stalls
• Applying a New Style From the Style Library
• No System Administrator After Upgrading
• Installing the StyleCatcher Plugin
• Open Comment Author Links in New Window
• Creating the Site Javascript Template

This has been an immense job and we just wanted to make sure and thank you all for participating in making the Movable Type documentation better.
