> To find your RapidWeaver 6 addons, go to the “RapidWeaver 6” menu item while holding down the “alt” or “option” key and you will see a “Reveal Addons Folder” in the menu. Copy all of these addons over into a Folder in you Documents folder. For example, I keep mine in “~/Documents/RapidWeaver Addons/” After you’ve done this, launch RapidWeaver 8, and go to the “Addons” tab in the “Preferences” window, and choose the the place …

Follow the first part of that post to reveal your addons folder for RapidWeaver 6. Then you can copy all the addons from that folder on your old Mac with RW6, and move them to the same folder on your other old Mac with RW6.

That should get your addons moved successfully. If you encounter any troubles let us know.
