Hey just a quick note that we’ve been updating documentation for MT5. Here’s a list of places to find new documentation:

• MT5 Documentation Index - an index listing all pages which are tagged Updated for MT5, New in MT5, or Bug in MT5
• Recently Updated Documentation

One highlight: Creating themes for MT5 - this was requested by many users. This should get you started. I hope to create a few sample themes and place them in a GitHub repo soon.

The documentation for MT5 is being initially created by the Japanese Movable Type team as they are leading development of MT5. I’m working with a translator to convert to English and then I’m going through each document to clean it up, reformat it, test it, and add more examples. I’ve been notifying the Japanese team whenever I think they should translate documentation back from my version if I’ve changed it significantly.

I’m beginning the process of converting the documentation site to a more topic-based structure rather than the current organization by user-type.

I’m converting many of the pages that list tags from pages in MT to index templates with loops to output pages by folder, tag, etc. This will ensure that these listings are always up-to-date.

As I make little adjustment and improvements to the templates, pages and styles… please let me know if I’ve broke anything or if you have any requests or suggestions.

Last week, we introduced expanded mobile reporting features in Google Analytics. To help developers, this launch includes features that make it easy to see how people are using specific parts of their iPhone and Android applications. The same Google Analytics reports that provide insights into website traffic and engagement are now available for mobile apps.
