I'm new to using the STE web editor. I have two big needs:

  • The ability to create hundreds of similar pages quickly by pulling information from a database.
  • Find and replace code within a single category of pages. Automatic import > change > export.

Does STE have these capabilities or will you have them in the future? Is there any program I can learn in order to accomplish these tasks?

BTW, amazing editor. It's a great tool.

Thank you, Dave

I have used the API for both of those tasks before, and you can begin using the API with one of thousands of programming languages out there. Or I can knock up a one-time specific program in Java, VB or C# for you when I've got a chance. (I'm going to reply to your PM after this post)

STE isn't able to do any of those tasks yet, but I'm open to suggestions such as these. The feedback tracker acts as my TODO list, so if you put these ideas up there, I'll see them in the list when I'm looking around for something new to add.

  • Pulling info from a database — Please let me know what type of database you need to pull information from as well: Oracle, MySQL, SQL Server, DB2, … etc ;-)
  • Automatic import / edit / export — Using extensions, export is already available. Import will be coming soon as well. For changing text from one thing to another, you'd need to rate this one up: Replace A with B

BTW, amazing editor. It's a great tool.

Thank you! ;-)

Is this possible to achieve with STE, but without the database? I need to create hundreds of templates to "autonumbered" categories (that don't exist yet). The content of the templates will be identical, but the category will be a gradually "counting number", like this:

1:_template
2:_template
3:_template
4:_template
.
.
.
.
.
99:_template
…and so on.
