After being behind on my upgrades I have caught up by upgrading to version 1.9. This was possibly my smoothest upgrade ever! I did manage to wipe out all my categories on my old posts though 
.
Think I’m going to spend some time customising my theme over the next few days!

Did you use the utility to convert categories?
Yes, worked for Ruths Blog but not for mine. I can see the categories.xml file it produced though. How did you get the tags to display below each post on your blog? How did you tag all your old posts?
That’s odd. If you want to send me a copy of your old blog, I’ll take a look at why it didn’t work.

To get the list of tags, just add pebble.decorator.BlogTagsDecorator to your list of decorators.

To tag all my entries, I actually added tags to the categories, then started tagging all new entries. It’s way too much work to tag all the old stuff.
How do you mean send a copy of the old blog? (I didn’t bother to make a backup
) If I was going to zip through and recategorise/tag them whatis the easiest way to do that? (I only have 140 posts so it wouldn’t take too long)

Doh!

Easiest way to categorise/tag existing entries? Probably to write a program that looks for keywords (driven by you) and maps them onto tags and categories. This would be easy to do using the classes in the pebble.blog package. Let me know if you need anything.
