Textpattern Update And Backup Scare
Jul 6, 01:45 PM By Eoghan O'Brien.Hey, I’ve just updated Textpattern from 4.0.2 to 4.0.3, and I have to say it was absolutely painless and remarkably easy. I’ve really been impressed with Textpattern since I moved over last December.
In Txp 4.0.3, they’ve started to clamp down on comment spam, which was one of two things I wasnt happy about with Textpattern. However, there’s now a myriad of ways comment spam can be stopped by the system so I’m not so worried about it anymore.
I was playing around with some CSS stuff earlier on today and I accidentally overwrote some style info which caused the site to look a bit dodgy for around 20 – 30 minutes, thankfully however I had a backup at hand. This is the second thing about Txp that I dont really like, if you’ve changed a part of the CSS and you dont like it and want to return to the way it was, you MUST have a backup on your own machine. If you had the ability to undo/redo in the Article Editor and Presentation Editors, I think Txp would be far easier to manage and use.
I’ve also changed the admin section with Empty Spaces’ updated and restyled look. If you use Txp but hate the look of the Admin Section this may be a good option for you.
