Just to update. I re-signed up to Stevie. Installed Anchor immediately, had a quick unexpected error pop up - but a refresh and it went away. So far, AnchorCMS officially works perfectly on Stevie. Huzzah.
I'd like to use this software on my hosting. Is there in any case my MySQL version can be updated to 5.2+? I'm currently on Johnny, but will be following the procedure to move to Stevie. I'm just wondering if it's at all possible for my MySQL version to be bumped up when I do to at least 5.2? Thanks in advance.
