Posted Sep 3, 2008

Big Medium 2.0.6 fixes a bug introduced in version 2.0.4, which can prevent Big Medium from properly importing document files from Big Medium v1 sites. This update is recommended if you plan to import sites from Big Medium 1.x into your Big Medium 2 installation.

The new version also fixes a bug that could cause a brief flicker on some sites and in some browsers when a page is first loaded.
