There is some behavior in Movable Type Open Source that I prefer to behave differently. Thankfully, this package is open source, and fairly well designed with customization in mind.
To use a common static uri that is different than admin pages:
- set target static uri in mt-config.cgi
override it in the templates:
- include/archetype_editor.tmpl
- include/header.tmpl
- dialog/header.tmpl
Edit /usr/share/perl5/MT/Asset.pm line 83:
: $1 eq 'r' ? MT->instance->static_path
Also line 62.-
ACTUALLY NO - instead changed lines 1004 and 1009 in /usr/share/perl5/MT/CMS/Asset.pm to %s instead of %r. Hopefully this will move only the asset, not the thumbnail.
