Hi, new user here. I downloaded the Official theme from the website. It is in my downloads folder and I have no idea how to have rapid weaver access it. I’ve tried dragging and dropping, I’ve tried to open it via the 3rd party themes in my project. How in the heck do I get my rapid weaver software to access the new theme I downloaded?

Double click? That’s how I install themes.

I double click on the downloads folder and it opens up other folders. I don’t know what to double click on?

There should be a file in there called Official.dmg or something very similar. Can you find that and double click it?

Nope. I searched for that file name and type in the finder. I’m at a loss. ☹

1. Double click the ZIP file from our store.
2. Open the folder that is uncompressed, and locate the “Official.rapidweavertheme” file.
3. Double-click the .rapidweavertheme file.

Cheers,
