This is the blog of Adam Kalsey. Unusual depth and complexity. Rich, full body with a hint of nutty earthiness.

That's great - thanks!
You could also do a rewrite to make www.me.com go to me.com (or the other way around). RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^me.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://me.com/$1 [L,R]
Which would take care of the me.com/www.me.com problem before it's a problem. Sorry.
Hey it's working! This is fun! Now ya just gotta get rid of the jerks who post too much! :-)
Phillip: Use .me.com as a host and it'd match anything.me.com or just me.com.

WOW. thank you so much, ive been trying to figure this out forEVER. just wondering about that last part though. [your comments seem to be different] on my comment template [stock] i already have these lines: if (getCookie("mtcmtauth")) { document.comments_form.bakecookie[0].checked = true; } else { document.comments_form.bakecookie[1].checked = true; } which is sufficient for making sure that radio button is already selected as to not confuse people. thanks so much for the info!
unfortunately it didnt fix my problem =\ my comments refuse to even try to set cookies. i figured this out by using firebird and having it ask me anytime a website tried to set cookies. all my friends mt blogs set cookies fine. mine didnt even try. i guess ill search even more for a fix. again, thnx for the info though, im sure it will help a bunch of poeple
Excerpt: After prompting from Alicia, I investigated the comments issue. MT sets the path on the cookie to the current directory. What this means is that if you are using permanent links, then the cookie will only remember you on an...
What is the difference in "movable type" and "blogging", I am wanting to add this functionality to my website? Thanks for helping out a webmaster newbie.
Movable Type is a software product that is used to create blogs. If you were to apply your question to cars, you'd end up with "what's the difference between Ford and Driving." Blogging is something you do and Movable Type is a product you can use to do it. Movable Type is aimed at people who are comfortable with installing and managing products on their Web servers. For everyone else, they have a product called TypePad. You can find out more about Movable Type and TypePad at http://movabletype.com/ and http://typepad.com/
Hello guys. My remember me is not working. Ive done all you say here but nothing happened. Can anyone help me? Thanks.
0k.. h0w d0 this w0rk?? i'm c0nfused??
Yeah Ive got same problem..think I need to use a different software, this is giveing me a headache
Interesting that you don't have the "Remember personal info?" checkbox on your own comment form. It should be noted where these changes are to be made. - default_templates/site_javascript.tmpl, for instance, for new blogs - mt.cgi : Edit Template: Site JavaScript (i.e., in the database) for existing blogs
