MarsEdit can integrate with a web browser, such as Safari, Chrome, or Firefox. Whatever you’re reading in your browser can be used to open a new post in MarsEdit. This is useful for bloggers who often cite other web pages in the contents of their own blog posts.
Safari users who are running macOS 10.12 (Sierra) or later can enable the MarsEdit extension in Safari Preferences:
Once the extension is enabled, you will find a MarsEdit icon in the Safari Toolbar:
Click the button to create a new post in MarsEdit. Any selected text will copied to the new post as quoted text.
On systems older than macOS 10.12, or if you use a different web browser than Safari, you can take advantage of the Safari Bookmarklet, which provides similar functionality to the Safari App Extension, but from a bookmark that can be installed in the "bookmarks bar" of your favorite browser.
To install the bookmarklet, just click and drag the link below to the bookmarks bar of your browser:
Click the bookmarklet to create a new post in MarsEdit. Any selected text will copied to the new post as quoted text.
If MarsEdit's extension doesn't show up in Safari, or if clicking the toolbar button or bookmarklet doesn't activate MarsEdit, your Mac may be having trouble locating MarsEdit. The following steps, in order, and try again:
If it still doesn't work, try restarting your Mac and repeating these steps again, or contact Red Sweater Support for assistance.
