Hey Weavers, We’re excited to announce that RapidWeaver Elements **3.0.13 Beta** is now available 🎉 This build polishes and adds clearer visibility controls, and tidies a few reliability fixes across CMS publishing, and more. ## What’s New in Elements 3.0.13 Beta? - **CMS / Publishing:** Publishing no longer risks breaking CMS login by skipping minification on the CMS editor script. - **All Components** Added new visibility modes, Hide and Do Not Publish. - **Accordian Component** Closed-state icons now rotate correctly. - **Fitness Project:** Fitness project thumbnail matches the other projects. - **Fitness Project:** Case-sensitive filename fix. ## How to Update to the Beta While we believe the betas of Elements 3 are very stable, however, we don’t recommend using it on live, mission-critical websites. The Tailwind 4 framework touches most parts of the app, including how webpages render, so please check your sites for layout issues or changes before re-publishing. To install the beta, launch your current build of Elements and go to Settings/Preferences. Under the Updates section, enable beta updates. Once beta updates are enabled, go to the Elements menu and select “Check for Updates…”. ## Better Hosting for your Website? Elements Hosting gives you a simple way to publish and manage your website.

Just done this update no problem but it made all my history of “Recent Projects” disappear so I have no recents. Annoying for me. ---

That’s just a macOS system thing, not something we control. It can sometimes happen if you have multiple copies of the app installed, and the Mac thinks it’s running a different app so doesn’t show the recent items. ---

”Just done this update no problem but it made all my history of “Recent Projects” disappear so I have no recents. Annoying for me.” - There is a setting in macOS to show more. @dan do you remember where? Someone in the elements team wrote about this before. ---

If I were to install the beta over V2, then publish, can I assume that I don’t need to delete all the files on the host first? ---

Correct!
