I’ve been using RW for ages. And this is a new and odd problem.
My website is simple: bunch of html pages, created with the “html code” option. No stacks or anything. Just simple html.
Recently, I realised that some pages with code had turned completely blank in the RW file. I only realised it on the website, which was embarrassing. The page was created couple years ago, published normally and well. But as the time passed, suddenly for no reason they turned completely blank and republished without me noticing that they were blank.
I didn’t work on them after their initial publication so it is not a “saving the file” problem.
It is as if I sleptwalked, opened up the RW file and erased the content of those html pages. And they are pretty random. I have around 200 html pages in my site and I have to check them one by one only to find out that it happened to some other pages too, randomly.
notice that only my code is turning blank, the theme is there. so on the web, it just looks like an empty theme template.
the html code I put on RW disappears, not the whole page with the theme/css.
I’m surprised RW7 is running on Big Sur, we certainly don’t recommend that. It may be why there’s data loss (although I’ve not seen other reports of this). Only RW8 officially supports Big Sur.
Perhaps other RW users can chime in with their experience?
Please make a back-up of your project file, and ideally upgrade to RW8.
