I am always thinking when the final release of MovableType 4 will come.

This time the Beta 7 is coming and I upgrade my unofficial site on time.

It looks this beta still not solve the problem to support IIS7.

The backend is improved and some new features are implemented.

Now MT4 has 60 known issues. Maybe need more beta version to fix them.

Waiting, waiting, waiting.

It is so fast the Beta 6 come out. MovableType 4 Unofficial Blog has been upgraded yesterday.

All fine. The steps of upgrade is same as my Beta 5 upgrade.

Just 平生一笑, said the Notifications is missing in the beta version. I have not noticed it.
I just tested it in Beta 6. It is there, by a new name of link, "Share this entry".

Later he advised me that this is a bug just fixed in Beta 6, which is mentioned in the ChangeLog.

It is true. The first one is:
53480: Restore "Send Notifications" feature
FIXED: The ability to send notifications has been fully implemented on top of the MT4 system.

So when next release, I should go to ChangeLog first.

The MovableType 4 just released beta 5.

So, I upgrade the MovableType 4 Beta Unofficial Blog to beta 5.

Steps as bleow:
1) SSH to Dreamhost.
2) cd mt4.g2soft.net
3) wget http://www.movabletype.org/downloads/MT-4.0-beta5-20070704.tar.gz
4) tar -xvzf MT-4.0-beta5-20070704.tar.gz
5) cd MT-4.0-beta5-20070704
6) cp -r -f ./ ../mtcgi/

Done.

Then I can login the backend to see the beta 5.
The database is same. No update of database needed.

Movabletype 4.0 beta 4 has released about one week. I just knew it.

So, I download it and upgrade my Unofficial MovableType site.

Because I host this MT4 site on Dreamhost. So the upgrade procedures are logged there.

If you have interest, go there to see how I upgraded it in just three steps.
