Learning Movable Type

« Previous Next »

Up until now, I only thought of it as a blogging tool, purely for blogs.

As I looked into it more deeply, I realized it’s a tool that fundamentally solves the reasons why I had to use JavaScript on my home server’s top page.

My home server uses JavaScript for the following reasons:

  1. Standardizing menus… I don’t want to add menus to previous pages just by adding a new page.
  2. Standardizing footers… I want to make it so that when I want to change footers or similar elements, I only have to modify one place.

Well, this is exactly what can be done with MT’s templates and module templates.

So, as part of my studies, I’m quietly converting my home server pages to MT in the background.

Since there aren’t many pages, the benefits might not be huge, but I want to try it a bit more for the purpose of learning.
