A Trick for Quick Testing of Rebuilt Templates in Movable Type
I’ve fiddled with my templates in Movable Type a lot, and one problem is that if I want to see the effect of my changes, I have to wait a long time for lots of files to rebuild.
Here’s a trick I’m now going to try. Movable Type makes it very easy to create new weblogs. I have created a new one just for testing. It will have just two weblog entries. Thus, rebuilding won’t take much time at all. I’ll try out my template revisions there, and then cut-and-paste them to my two real weblogs.
