At 08:52:35 yesterday morning, the MR Movable Type backend decided that it didn’t like its current templates and wanted new ones. Being of an ambitious sort, it went ahead and reverted to its default templates, managing to corrupt the MySQL database in the process. This last bit was a particularly inventive move on its part, since it had the side-effect of preventing us from directly accessing the templates to un-eff what MT had just effed up. After several hours of work, a small dent in the wall above our bed, a large bump on the back of our head, and a headache – things should look normal to you. There’re still some backend issues, the most significant being that little “allowing us to make our blog look the way we want” thing.
No blogging for us until relatively late this evening. We’re going to go read a book or something.
In unrelated news, the site is actually due for a facelift in the next couple of weeks. Unfortunately, that new look (a) had nothing to do with yesterday’s disaster, and (b) has no been delayed by (a).
