When will source editor be updated for Confluence 5.5.2?

Robert Lauriston

I installed 5.5.2 because of the security advisory, but I can't use Confluence without the source editor, which is apparently incompatible with 5.5.2. When will it be updated? If it's almost ready I won't bother switching to 5.4.4.

It's ridiculous that this isn't in the base feature set.

Have you tried manually downloading it and installing it? It probably isn't incompatible. The marketplace requires the plugin developers to go back in and specify that their plugin works with the most recent version. If the API's used have not changed typically the add ons still work ... even though the developer hasn't explicitly stated as much. Try manually downloading it and installing it. Then test it out. I bet it still works just fine.
