  • Added MySQL backend support.
  • Added the <$MTBlogRelativeURL$> tag to produce a relative URL to your main blog.

  • Strip HTML from author, email, and URL comment fields.
  • Added decode_html global tag attribute to decode HTML entities.
  • Added title=``1'' and excerpt=``1'' attributes to <MTGoogleSearch>. Thanks to Dave Sifry for the patch.
