Blog upgrade info
[Movable Type Publishing Platform: Movable Type 3.01D bug fix release] This is primarily for users of the MT installation in the VV Lab. Basically, we went from MT 2.63 to MT 3.01D. This allows us to use TypeKey to prevent spam porno posts to our blogs. To do so, you need to follow the following simple steps to reconfigure your blog(s)...
1. Configure your blog(s) to allow posts only from registered users. To do this, log in as normal and click... Weblog Config then click Preferences (its to the right side of the page on my mac) then scroll down to Comment Configuration then un-check "accept comments from unregistered users" then be sure that "accept comments from registered users" is checked. Click "save changes" and do a rebuild.
2. Now, you need to add a sign in link to your blog wherever you want poeple to be able to make comments. The html for this is:
[sign in required] [sign out]
I added it to the templates in Indivdual entry archive, comment listing template and comment error template. You could add the links wherever you want.
If you don't do step 1, your blog will quickly fill with porn spam. If you don't do step 2, nobody will be able to post to your blog. Step 1 is essential, step 2 is optional.
