Mountee

Description

Use Your Favourite Tools

Everyone has their favorite Mac apps, so why be limited to creating templates inside the WordPress browser window? Mountee allows you to access your templates as Finder files, so you can work uninterrupted in your favourite app.

Work With Files & Folders

Creating a new template or template group is as easy as creating a new file or folder. Develop your own set of re-usable templates and groups, then simply drag them into your Mountee drive to kick-start your next project.

Don’t Let The Control Panel Disrupt Your Workflow

With Mountee’s File Preferences panel you can control template attributes – like caching and PHP processing – directly from your editor app of choice.

Mountee Works Behind The Scenes

Mountee knows WordPress and ExpressionEngine. When you save a template, Mountee will clear the cache and save a revision if necessary. If you drag a template from one site to another, settings transfer over seamlessly.

Mountee’s home on the web is at http://hellomountee.com/.

Requirements

Mountee works with WordPress 4.4 and higher.

Mountee is really two pieces of software: the Mac application, and the WordPress plugin.
