[Xerte] Re: pagewizards

[Julian Tenney]

When you click help - about you get the actual version number based on changes to the software. If you right click the exe and get properties, the version number there is the version number of the .exe when zinc built it. The same exe has been used for lots of 'versions'. Help - about is the way to know.

Thanks for the info regarding version numbering. I had not come across that method of version checking before.

I have just checked the details for my installations of Xerte, both on my main PC and my laptop on which I did the re-installation of the version of Xerte that I down-loaded yesterday and they both provide the same version and dates as you describe in your email.

So for anyone having problems getting the Page Wizards to work I recommend that they down-load the current version of Xerte from the link on the home page of the Xerte web site and install that. Then download the Page Wizards from the Xerte Wiki Page Wizards Page. This should provide a desktop Xerte installation in which Page Wizards will work correctly.

Kind regards

The confusion on the version is probably due to the method of checking. If I right-click Xerte.exe, select Properties and then the Version tab, it tells me the version is 2.5.0.33. I'm pretty sure I'm using Xerte v2.15. The file date on Xerte.exe is April 8th, 2009, but XMLEngine.swf is dated January 25th, 2011. Some updates involve changing XMLEngine.swf without touching Xerte.exe.

Following on from your last email I have downloaded the version of desktop Xerte currently available from the main Xerte web site, which is described as version 2.15.

I have deleted my current installation of Xerte, installed this version, created a project based on the Page Templates project wide template and compared all the files this generated with the files generated by performing the same task with the previous version.

This is my standard process for identifying changes in versions and the comparison reveals no changes in the two sets of project files.

I have also installed page wizards in this new version and tested a couple of them (title page and model answer) both worked correctly.

I am not sure what has happened in your installation. Page Wizards only work with Xerte 2.n (that is they don't work with Xerte On-line toolkits), but I can confirm they work with the current version of Xerte.

Kind regards
