Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to a few of the questions we’ve been asked about Mountee.

How many sites can I use Mountee with?

One Mountee license grants one user permission to use the Mountee app on their computer(s). They may use the module and app to access all their ExpressionEngine sites. Buy one license, and use Mountee with every site you ever build! View full license agreement.

Does Mountee work with 1.x versions of EE?

Yes! Mountee works with EE 1.6.x upwards. You need to install the appropriate module for your EE version. You can download modules for both versions here.

Does Mountee work with EE’s Multi Site Manager?

Yes! Please have a read of this support article for important information about using Mountee with ExpressionEngine’s Multi Site Manager.

Does Mountee run on a 64-bit kernel?

Yep!

Is Mountee available for Windows?

No. We built Mountee to make things easier for our work developing EE sites on a Mac and it relies on an OS X specific framework called MacFuse.

How is this different from EE’s built-in file sync?

Mountee communicates directly with your MySQL database, so you don’t have to worry about keeping files in sync. This also means that when you save a file on your Mountee drive, it knows to reset the cache, add a new revision, etc. You can also control template attributes – like caching and PHP processing – directly from your editor.

Mountee also allows you to edit your snippets and global variables as files too.

Everyone uses ExpressionEngine in a different way, so we recommend downloading a 14 day trial to see if Mountee helps your workflow.
