Philipp, let's keep the conversation in the MT forums and then close this when you're satisfied.-

The sort_order attribute of the mt:Entries tag will solve this for you. Note that mt:Pages is a variation of mt:Entries -

Beau Smith shared an idea in Get Satisfaction on April 21, 2009 00:44:
Allow creator to edit topic after leaving commentRequest: Don't lock the editing of a topic if the only commenter is the creator of the topic.
Repro Steps:
- Created a topic (notice also the issue with GetSatisfacation not accepting the less than symbol in the topic): http://tr.im/jhxa
- Left a comment because I missed the "edit topic" link.
- Was then unable to edit the topic after submitting comment
- Deleted my comment, then I was able to edit my topic.

Message truncated when using less than angle bracket and some dashesTyped the following as a message to a friend
@=@ (less-than-angle-bracket here)-- great minds thinking alike
(GetSatisfaction borks the less than character code)
Resulting message looked like this:
@=@
Sent additional message which did work:

Beau Smith replied on April 18, 2009 01:55 to the question "Replacing the standard feed on Movable Type with a Fedburner feed?" in Six Apart:
Official answer in FeedBurner docs:
http://www.google.com/support/feedbur...
Example with OR code to specify atom, rss, or index as the filename:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !FeedBurner
RewriteRule ^(index|atom|rss)\.xml$ http://feeds2.feedburner.com/YOURFEED... [R,L]
This .htaccess file should be placed at the root of each blog for each feed... but of course if you have multiple blogs you could list the rules for each blog in one .htaccess file. This also assume that you are not defining some sort of base directory in your .htaccess file.
Cheers. -

Not sure why it's working sometimes and not other times. If you can reproduce the issue, then it'll be easier to troubleshoot.
Because this is a question about what to do with a file after it's been published with Movable Type, it's not really an issue with Movable Type rather this is an issue with your rewrite rules.

Beau Smith asked a question in PBwiki on October 27, 2008 17:44:
import mediawikiFrom a question on the GetSatisfaction website, I see that you don't currently support import from MediaWiki.
If there was one, I'm sure that many current MediaWiki wikis would start to migrate to PBwiki... including a handful from Six Apart. -
Beau Smith replied on October 27, 2008 17:23 to the question "Import mediawiki content into PB Wiki" in PBwiki:
I'm considering moving a large Mediawiki wiki to PBwiki. Having an import feature would make this decision easy. Any updates on this feature request? -

Actually saw Lane's tweet, looked at customer's tweet, then posted tweet url to the TypePad IRC, then a Yann fixed the issue... next day Yann sent me link to customer's "thank you" tweet.
I'll check out the Overheard feature. -

Thanks for the responses.
When will a fix for this be pushed to production?
If too far out, it may make sense for us to create the company pages for products in order to capture lost customers. -

Products More Popular Than CompanyAs Lane saw this morning http://twitter.com/monstro/statuses/8... most people who use Typepad, Movable Type, or VOX don't know they are "products" of the company "Six Apart" rather they think each product is a "company".
Searching for the company "Typepad", "Movable Type", or "Vox" doesn't provide results
What is the best practice for capturing these requests for help?
Can we map companies to products of a company?
Or should we create separate companies for each product?
