STE

STE is now available to download. Please report any issues in the support forum. Also available is a list of changes for each release.

You are downloading an application that you can run on your computer. It does not affect your existing Wikidot experience in any way - you can continue editing your sites using a web browser if you like. STE simply provides an alternative way of modifying pages that is quicker, easier and more efficient!

All versions of the program are 100% spyware and malware free. Note that while the program does collect usage statistics, you can disable this using the settings/preferences (run the program, then press F4 on your keyboard to show this dialog).

How to install

1. Download the latest version from the list above
2. Unzip the archive to get either "STE.app" (Mac) or "STE.jar" (Windows/Linux)
3. Move the file to wherever you want on your computer (for Mac, I recommend the Applications folder)
4. Double-click on the file to run the editor. No installation is necessary.

Troubleshooting

If you are having problems with running the JAR file, please check:

• That the Java Runtime Environment is installed
• That the Java Runtime Environment is associated with JAR files
• Linux users should check that the file is "unlocked" in your operating system (right-click, properties)

You may also want to read the troubleshooting page on the wiki, or contact the developer directly.

Developer mode

To enable the "Developer Install…" button for extensions, download and run this program, after installing STE.

You'll receive no indication that the program has done anything (there is no confirmation message), but the next time you start up STE the "Developer Install…" button will be enabled. You only need to do this once - future versions of STE will remember the setting.
