I am trying to rebuild my website from scratch due to a data loss. Since the original build Elixir has closed and all of the support forum pages are gone, so hoping someone can help me.
I already have credentials and can log into my editor page, but not sure how to link up Alloy’s editor section in RW. It only asks for User Name and Hashed Pass (which I didn’t keep record of). Any insight would be great.
Unfortunately it does not provide that level of information. At this point since there is no support available for that product or foundry I’ll probably have to move away from using Rapidweaver for the new build.
It shows you how to setup the credentials (from about 1:30 in the video), so you could set them up again. I have had this happen to me in the past and recovered it this way.
You can’t recover your existing password from the hash, but you can set up a new one by following the steps in the video that’s embedded in the documentation.
It deploys a built-in feature that you switch on and republish the page, in which you then enter your desired password and it returns the hash. You then copy that hash, and paste it in the Editor properties in RapidWeaver. Upload the page and the password has been changed. Switch the feature back off im RapidWeaver to display the actual editor again.
Let me know if I can help - I’m a professional Foundry and Alloy user and have build quite a few websites based on both.
