MT 4.1 now out

Movable Type 4.1 is now available, I notice. I gave it a try today and while there are obvious improvements everywhere, there are a couple of issues:


  1. Although there's supposed to be a migration path for users of the Custom Fields plug-in, I can't find it and the existing custom field data wasn't imported. That might be because I'd already tried the MT4.1 beta and updated my database schema, preventing any upgrade script from running. Either way, the built-in pro pack plug-in works and it also offers the additional asset container tags that never made it into Arvind's original plug-in but which is available from the Athena codebase still. Which is nice.

  2. FastSearch currently hiccups with it. I get through two results from either a straight search or a tag search before getting a "divide by zero" error. I've let Mark know, so hopefully a fix won't be long in coming. Unless there's something screwy with my set-up, of course.


Otherwise, all looks good!
