It’s been exactly six months and a day since Textpattern 4.0.4 was released. I don’t know what took me so long, but I finally upgraded my installation this morning and it was perfectly smoothly, as always¹.

In the process, I’ve started upgrading some of my installed plug-ins to those that support, and take full advantage of, Textpattern 4.0.4. I especially like that tru_tags has, “Added some fancy javascript tricks and UI enhancements to make admin-side tagging easier.” Way cool!

I look forward to taking advantage of some of the new plug-in functionality and using some of the other great new plug-ins that have been cropping up recently. You’ll probably see some new features popping up around here soon.

On a related note, I have also now personally qualified both mta_article_id and mta_digg_it for Textpattern 4.0.4 (although I already knew they worked).

¹ The Textpattern team does an especially good job with keeping major upgrades seamless.
