Now all what’s needed to resurrect this has been done:
- moved everything to a new server I have complete access to
- exported all old entries including comments from the old, no longer fully working, nucleus cms and imported it into movable type
- started adjusting the style
- installed iMT the iPhone interface, which is really great!
There are a few drawbacks, though:
- Old links will broken. Currently I don’t mind too much and won’t fix this. Google will find the content in the new places soon anyway.
- I still have to work on the style. This may take a while.
- I miss pagination and haven’t found out how to achieve this, yet.
Why I switched from nucleus? Well lately showing a single entry didn’t work. As I didn’t have complete access to the server, I didn’t know why this happened. Further I wanted to switch to a more supported platform anyway. Many people might have switched to Worpress instead, but somehow I don’t like what I hear about Wordpress (too many holes). Further development on nucleus seemed to have stalled for quite a time.
Movable Type is quite fun. The only thing is, that the plugin repository is hard to browse. Too may too old plugins, which won’t work on the version I use anyway.
