Big Medium 2.0b26: "Remembrance"

Posted Sep 11, 2006

The "Remembrance" beta update fixes bugs in the style editor and when saving images, files or media.

  • Fixed a bug under Firefox that occasionally caused JavaScript code to appear in the browser window when saving/editing a document, image or media file.

  • Fixed a bug in the style editor that prevented changes from being saved in Internet Explorer and Safari.

(v2.0b25 was briefly released with the first bug fix; this version replaced that release a few minutes later to fix the second bug.)

Cures Headaches

"I love Big Medium! Running a site with so many different types of content to keep fresh is very time consuming. I'm so glad that adding fresh articles is now the least of my headaches. Many thanks for all the hours I'll save with site upkeep!"
—Karen Denning

"The installation instructions are seriously good. I cannot remember seeing any better manual in the world of computers. Microsoft, Apple, Adobe, vBulletin, et al could benefit by taking a page from Global Moxie’s book!"
—Kathleen Tinkel
