I often wish i hadnt upgraded, but i stuck with it, apparently v7.1.0 is just around the corner which might be more reliable ?. I have sent my Log file in many many times following many crashes, but i believe it fell on deaf ears. But i am SLOWLY getting used to its quirks, Must keep saving it though 🙂 tim ---

There’s always going to be a few individuals with issues which are mainly related to specific projects/old or incompatible addons/website hosts/internet connections/OSX related issues/user error that will have trouble. Those are the ones that show up in forums (across all apps and services and OSes). Very few write to say how well things are going. > [@Rock solid FTP in RW7.

I do feel for those that are experiencing issues as I imagine its incredibly frustrating. I would say, though, that Realmac has been very dedicated to FTP, in my opinion (based on release notes, podcast discussions, etc). Maybe even at the expense of other things (perhaps the blog plugin, for example). There’s obviously some mysteries left though. Maybe 7.1 can get the 1% down to 0.5%. Most people are flying with Rapidweaver 7! ---

It’s been working just fine for me. But… you’ve waiting this long. May as well wait for 7.1 and see how it is working for people. ---

I’ve been using RW7 since the Beta release. No major issues, very stable and used for all my sites. I got very quick responses and solutions during the Beta testing. Looking forward to the public release of v7.1 - I do have the early beta release so I’ll have a play with that alongside my day-to-day v7
