I'm only a few minutes into setting up my new blog, and SubText is
already giving me grief. This reminds me of why I decided to run off and build my own blog engine.
Lets see what issues I've run into so-far:
- Couldn't get SubText to run under IIS7's Integraded mode; had to switch to Classic.
- Had permissions issues on my App_Data folder.
- Ran into several errors while changing some options that seem to have "fixed" themselves when I refreshed the page.
- Getting a NullReferenceException when I try to save my Akismet API key. (But changing other settings on the same page works fine).
- Right now, even as I'm editing this post, I can't update the categories. It tells me: "Category Update failed.There was a baseline problem updating the post categories."
- Oh, almost forgot: It won't let me put my Google Analytics tracking code where Google recommends putting it (in the <head> tag).
I recenly joined the SubText google group with the intent of helping to reduce the level of friction this software gives its users, but now I'm leaning back toward writing my own.
