Six Apart today announced the release of Movable Type 5.
Movable Type 5 is puts more emphasis on whole-site publishing, starting with publishing a website and then adding blogs.
New and improved features in MT5 include:
- A new user dashboard for both the website and blogs. This makes it easy for authors, editors, designers and other publishers to easily navigate between the two.
- A new theme mechanism that makes it easy to apply a new theme across a website and blogs with a single click that proliferates changes throughout the published site.
- Enhanced content management features that include revision history and new custom fields. There are five new object types for custom fields: website, blog, comment, template and asset.
Movable Type is available in several versions, ranging from a free open source version to their commercial Enterprise version.
