Now
Welcome to Movable Type, You should probably change your login details first. To do this find "Edit Your Profile" along the sidebar on the right and select it.
On the next page, click the "Edit" button to change the details of the 'itp' user. Here you can change your username (for logins), nickname (appears on your blog), your password and more. Remember to change your password above all else!
Now you're ready to configure your first blog. Back on the main menu page, select "Configration" from the "First Weblog" section.
On this page you can give your blog a title and setup the proper urls. If you want your blog to appear at the topmost part of your site ([=http://itp.nyu.edu/~NETID/=]) then you're done
->Weblog Name: name of blog\\
Local Site Path: /home/NETID/public_html/new_blog\\
Site URL: [=http://itp.nyu.edu/~NETID/new_blog=] \\
Local Archive Path: /home/NETID/public_html/new_blog/archives\\
Archive URL: [=http://itp.nyu.edu/~NETID/new_blog/archives=] \\
Timezone: UTC-5 (Eastern Time)
where NETID is your own NYU NETID and 'new_blog' is the directory name you'd like. Hit "Save". The option to rebuild your site will appear, but we need to create our directories first (if you followed the above). So, back in your terminal window type
mkdir ~/public_html/new_blog
where new_blog is the name of the directory you would like. Note: you can also do this via an SFTP such as fugu; check your program for the option to "Create New Directory."
