Hi @zdenek,
Great to hear you’re exploring a switch to Elements — I think you’ll find it a real breath of fresh air. The WYSIWYG editor in Elements is truly a game changer, especially if you’re coming from platforms that don’t offer a live editing experience.
While multilingual support isn’t built into Elements just yet, it’s something we want to add in the future. In the meantime, you can absolutely create language-specific folders in your project and use Globals for shared content sections. Globals let you override not only design settings (colours, backgrounds, etc.) but also text content, which means you can tailor the same layout for different languages easily.
If it helps, I’d be happy to create a quick demo showing how this can be done 
That’s quite a stack list — and I can imagine it came with a significant investment over time!
The good news is that many of those features are already built into Elements, or planned for it. Here’s a quick breakdown:
Feature-by-feature comparison:
- Foundation → Elements is built on Tailwind, the most popular and modern CSS framework today. It offers everything Foundation does (and more), in a cleaner, more maintainable system.
- TotalCMS → Our work-in-progress CMS is built directly into Elements. It’s a flat-file, markdown-based system that requires no setup. Watch the Dev Diary previews for a glimpse of how it works. Just today we released a preview of instant search.
- Swatches → I think the need for Swatches is eliminated in Elements. Styling is built right into the component system with a far more intuitive and consistent approach.
- SEO → Elements includes a suite of SEO tools. If you have specific SEO needs, let us know — we can help guide you on best practices.
- Accordion → Built-in! We have a modern, flexible Accordion component ready to use.
- Columnist → Tailwind supports native CSS columns. Some users have already created free custom components using this — and we can help you set that up if needed.
- Photo Pro → Elements includes a powerful Gallery component with support for remote/warehoused images — just drop in your images and it handles everything else.
- HTML5 Video → Elements’ Video component supports MP4, YouTube, and Vimeo out of the box.
- FormSnap → Elements has a robust set of Form components built-in. Add fields, configure your SMTP or webhook, and you’re good to go.
That’s totally understandable — you’ve clearly put a lot of time and effort into your current setup. But rebuilding in Elements is a great opportunity to modernise your site and consolidate features in a cleaner, more future-proof system.
We’re committed to supporting RapidWeaver Classic for the foreseeable future, especially for existing users. That said, we can’t speak to the future of third-party tools like Stacks, which are outside of our control.
Elements is a fresh start, built with modern tools — and yes, you’ll find a lot of familiar concepts from Classic. But you’ll also enjoy a more intuitive, flexible experience. Once you get hands-on with the live editor and built-in components, it’s hard to go back.
If by “formula” you mean plan:
- The most popular option is the Plus plan.
- If you’re building and selling sites to clients, the Pro plan is the one to choose.

From what I can see, most of it could be recreated in Elements fairly quickly. The core features are either built-in or in active development.
If you have any more questions — big or small — feel free to ask. We’re more than happy to help you make a smooth switch to Elements
