Everitz Consulting

At Everitz Consulting, our speciality is working with the Movable Type content management system (this includes Melody or TypePad), but don't let that fool you into thinking we can't help if you don't use Movable Type.

Even if you don't use Melody, Movable Type or TypePad, that's okay. We have experience working with Expression Engine, Moodle, OpenX, phpBB, Pligg, SMF, vBulletin, Web Event and WordPress too. Not in the list? Ask - we might have tried, and if we haven't, we might be willing to give it a go.

Whatever your need, we'd love to have the opportunity to show you what we can do to help you find your online voice, and if this isn't your cup of tea, we also provide custom Perl and PHP programming solutions, will help you sort out your MySQL database issues and we can even offer network consulting.

Regardless of your choice, our ultimate goal is your complete satisfaction. We will not pick up and leave the instant that the current project is complete, nor will we leave you in a lurch wondering what is happening while your deadline approaches.

If you are interested in developing a relationship rather than just writing another contract, we look forward to working for you.

After quite some time, MT-Notifier version five is close to seeing the light of day. Or, at the very least, crawling out from under the rock from which he has been hiding.

I am sure that there are those who will argue that this release is probably not worth of a full-fledged bump in the version numbers, and there are bound to be reasons why you are right. But there are also surely prior releases that were worth more than a minor bump as well. It all works out in the end.

• Corrected ordering of permissions for widget installation.

• Changed subscription sort date to modified (from created).
• Cleaned up carriage return/line feeds in plugin files.

If you've been awake and online at any point in the last 48 hours or so, you have no doubt heard about Melody, the fork of the Open Source version of Movable Type, driven by a number of prominent members in the Movable Type community. If you haven't, then you surely will. The news is just about everywhere, at least for now.

What is perhaps most interesting is what is yet to be said - that there is little happening other than the news of the fork itself. While lots of places seemingly have lots to say (here, here, here, here), there has mostly been no response.

• Reorganized Perl "require" statements to ensure calling order.
• Updated language file with correct string for template.

Licensed users of MT-Notifier v4 can re-download from your unique download link to obtain the updated version.

As mentioned previously, you may need to update your URL to get to the download if you are having problems.

This release fixes the problem you may have encountered with an undefined subroutine. Requests were processed, but you would have received an error.

Also, anyone who has created translation files for MT-Notifier may have had an issue with one of the email strings. That has now been corrected as well.
