I will send directly to you Dan. Although this is the same problem I have had several email conversations with RM support about since v7 was initially released.
It is a holiday week in the US and Canada. Your response rate may be limited. Might want to consider next week for release after everyone gets back and can help test. Just my 2¢
After a short flurry of emails Dan has only gone and fixed it. Unchecking the “Preview Using:” setting in RW7 prefs fixed my ongoing Export problems when Exporting to a local folder. Many thanks. RW7.1 is all go.
@bruce did you re-convert your project from 6 to 7 ? or is this from an older 7.1 beta to the latest one? Some more details would be appreciated as this is not normal behaviour.
@dan, All of my sites were made with RW6 and then converted to RW7, and I was running the 7.1 beta before the one released today. I see this behavior wth all of my sites, and it seems to occur every time there’s any RW update. I open the project, make a minor change, and sometimes all my pages want to reupload, and today it was just all project resources.
BUG: If you change the name of a site from index.html to index.php you can not select any option in the upcoming “Change Homepage Filename” window. It just opens and opens and opens again and again and again:
@bruce you say you make a minor change, but it really depends on the change you make. Sometimes what seems like a small change can actually effect all pages.
Can you give us reproducible steps, or let us know what triggered these changes?
Does it happen every time you make a change or just sometimes?
All I do is click into an area to make RW think a change has occurred. Then I save and publish, and RW reuploads all of my resources. This happens every first time there’s a RW update, then it clams down to normal. I’m not having trouble with my sites that have no resources. I can send you my project if that helps?
One huge problem that I’ve been having is periodic freezing up in switching to Preview mode or changing from full to mobile when in Preview. Theme is Rustic by Elixir (have not tested others). I have to save constantly. In the midst of a huge project that must go live by Friday so am wondering how stable 7.1 will be and if it addresses the Preview freezing issue. Thank you!
I am also having all sorts of problems with this round. Can’t do anything without it crashing.
I have replace host file and that did not fix the problem. I dragged all the files to a fresh theme thinking maybe that was the problem. Still can’t view the settings to update. Each time it starts exporting it crashes.
I just removed Pluskit (latest) version and now I can preview and everything is behaving as it should. Bad think is I have used pluskit throughout and will have to do something different.
