Mango 1.2 released
Posted on September 20, 2008, under Announcements.
Well, technically it's 1.2.2. But I call this release the "less annoyances" release. I haven't removed all of them, but this release should make your Mango experience happier.
Easier updates
The biggest improvement in this release is "automatic updates". Automatic in the sense that you won't have to do a lot of work to get your upgrades from now on. Just click on the "Install updates" button, and everything should be automatically done by Mango itself. You will see this feature working fully in the next update.
Less annoying cache
Was the never-clearing-cache getting on your nerves? not anymore! This version introduces a new way of looking at things, so the cache should be much more responsive. That also affects changes of themes, changes in plugins, and changes done from the Pod Manager.
Many more things
There are other smaller additions and changes such as being able to add categories while creating a post, being able to delete categories, not allowing a commenter to write the same comment twice to the same post (to avoid refresh/resubmit comment), showing friendlier messages when a plugin is activated, and more.
So what are you waiting for? Download this update!
Thanks to Brian Rinaldi, Dan Short and Andrew Powell for submiting fixes.

Adam Tuttle has created a plugin to converts all dashes, ellipses and multiplication signs into their typographic equivalents in posts and pages (content and title).

More URL rewriting

Similar to the URL rewriting guide by Adam Tuttle, Mark Aplet has written a guide on how to apply URL rewriting for Mango using ISAPI_Rewrite 3.0.
