### Elements Store is now live!

It’s a built-in place to discover, share, and buy products made for Elements: components, templates, projects, themes, and resource packs. You can browse free and paid products, install them directly into Elements, and even submit your own work to share with others.

## Get the Update

Elements should prompt you while it’s running to let you know there’s an update. If it doesn’t, you can select the “Check for Updates…” menu option from the “Elements” app menu.

Alternatively, you can always [download the latest build of Elements here](http://realmacsoftware.com/download/elements/).

### Need a previous build?

If the latest build causes issues for your setup, you can roll back to an earlier version using the [Release Notes page](https://realmacsoftware.com/rapidweaver/releasenotes/).

## Give Feedback

If you are running a licensed copy of Elements, please post all feedback in the [Feedback Forum](https://forums.realmacsoftware.com/c/rapidweaver-elements/beta-feedback/57). You can use the Elements \> Send Feedback… menu item to automatically pre-fill the build number into a new topic.

Hi @mrTablet,

I’m just looking in to this background CMS issue, but I can’t replicate the issue seen in your screenshot — do you have a project that replicates the issue? 🙂

Loving all the work you guys are doing. FYI, all the elements items from [https://marketplace.realmacsoftware.com](https://marketplace.realmacsoftware.com) do NOT appear when clicking the Marketplace in Elements. Only RM products appear.

Hey @LaPan

No worries. Developer accounts are coming to the Elements store soon. 🙂

We are beta testing the Elements store with our own products first. If the store goes up in flames for some reason, or there are payment, billing, or delivery issues during the beta period, we’d rather it affect our own products so we can work out any bugs.

We’d rather not beta test the store using third-party developers’ products if things broke down, that would be a terrible first experience for devs.
