need to clearly state that install method on your blog will install outdated version
Opened this issue · 0 comments
After installing textorize via the instructions your blog post (the one that's linked to from textorize.org), I just spent quite a while writing a detailed bug report about how there were so many errors. Right before clicking "create a new issue", I decided to double check everything and make sure I wasn't just being an idiot, and that's when the thought occurred to me: What if the method I used to install wasn't the current official method? Lo and behold, that was the issue. It appears the instructions on the blog install version 0.1.2 whereas the instructions on textorize.org install 1.0 (at this time). Quite a difference (and 1.0 works great for me, btw).
I know you have the "Update October 6, 2009: http://textorize.org is now live and the main resource for the textorize project!" bit at the top of the blog post, but it doesn't say anything about the instructions on the blog being so outdated that they install an incredibly bug-ridden version of your software. I think it might be wise to state that (or something similar) explicitly, as I immodestly believe I'm not a noob, and yet I still made that mistake, so I fear other may as well.
