Enterprise Mode Site List Manager updated for IE mode
Joachim_T you can bulk load an existing xml file, modify it and save as xml. Version number is incremented.
Doesnt help. i need to set the number myself. If you import it, it always starts again with 1.
So always after save a new xml i have to edit the number after that. to match the exisiting number in my environment

You are not directly editing XML files with the tool.
How it works is like this (the order of the steps is important!) :
- you create a new configuration by bulk-importing an existing XML or enter the entries manually. This is only required once!
- when done editing, you save the result to an XML that is published on a webserver.
- after saving to XML, you export the configuration via the Export option. The resulting file is a config file (extension *.emie2) - not required on the webserver, so you can put it anywhere you like.
- For future modifications, you simply:
- Load the last config file via Import
- Edit it
- Save to XML
-> this step will increase the version number! - Export again to a new config file
The config files also contain the version number! So it is not lost on consecutive changes if you follow this process and import the latest file first.
You also can edit the emie2 file after exporting to increase the version number there. Then it hould retain that version after importing, and the next XML should get that version + 1.
A bit wonky, but works and you get used to it fast.

I see the number retained from the xml I import. After making modifications you need to save as XML. The version number is then incremented. For me this works as designed. Anyhow, more serious issues around 😁
