Our website is now built with Elements!

We’ve just launched the all-new Realmac Software website, built entirely with RapidWeaver Elements :tada:

It’s still very much a work in progress, with some loose ends to tidy up (and a few old classic-built pages still lingering around), but this marks the start of a new era.

Right out of the box, Elements has delivered excellent performance scores and lightning-fast page speeds, and we’re just getting started :star_struck:

We’ll be expanding and refining the site over the coming weeks. If you spot anything broken or have suggestions, let us know!

On a quick skim through:

Footer text is almost unreadable in Dark Mode:

Difficult to make out the pricing!

I would have waited to release this. Looking on mobile and there are more than a few issues. Not selling it to me.

@logrunner thanks for the feedback, those are easy fixes in Elements :flexed_biceps:

Pushing an update in 3…2…

I think the major bugs were on dark mode, and they should be fixed now. Take another look, and let me know if you’re still seeing issues :slight_smile:

Very Nice! Good Job!

We also have a new Release Notes page where you can download older builds of Elements (should you ever need one)!

@dan I have OCD with spacing, probably just me

You’re absolutely right, and sometimes you just have to get the thing shipped so you can see the flaws in it :slight_smile:

You can expect A LOT of changes and refinements in the coming days and weeks!

@dan asked chatgtp to check your wording

Apologies here was the alternative wording

Just a bit of fun​:joy::joy::joy::joy::joy:

Grammatically, the paragraph is mostly correct — it’s clear and well-structured — but there’s a minor stylistic inconsistency rather than a strict grammatical error.

Here’s the original again:

“RapidWeaver Elements is the fast, modern website builder for macOS. It gives you full design control and a visual workflow that makes publishing sites easy.”

Issues / Improvements:

  1. Article choice (“the fast, modern website builder”)

    • Using “the” implies that RapidWeaver Elements is the only fast, modern website builder for macOS — a strong, exclusive claim.

    • If that exclusivity isn’t intended, you should use “a” instead:
      :white_check_mark: “RapidWeaver Elements is a fast, modern website builder for macOS.”

  2. Parallelism (minor style point)

    • “Full design control and a visual workflow that makes publishing sites easy” mixes a noun phrase (“full design control”) and a noun phrase with a relative clause (“a visual workflow that makes publishing sites easy”).

    • It’s not wrong, but you could make it smoother by keeping the structure more parallel:
      :white_check_mark: “It gives you full design control and a visual workflow for easy site publishing.”
      or
      :white_check_mark: “It gives you full design control and makes publishing sites easy with a visual workflow.”

Corrected version:

“RapidWeaver Elements is a fast, modern website builder for macOS. It gives you full design control and a visual workflow for easy site publishing.”

So grammatically, it’s fine — the only real “issue” is with article usage and stylistic parallelism.

Hey @dan,

I have to ask! What does the copyright claimer in the footer mean?

Realmac Software publishes Elements, a next-generation web design app owned by Elements Platform Ltd.

Who’s Elements Platform Ltd?

Cheers,
Erwin

Still us, but it’s all part of a bigger plan :slight_smile:

@graham57 You should be seeing this when you visit our website…

If you’re seeing something else, perhaps clear your browser cache (or try in another browser). Let me know how you get on.

I have been using RW for years and am not an expert. My hosting company, Network Solutions has been unable to publish my uploaded site because they are not able to deal with an FTP upload. Is there something I can do in my RW program to deal with an non FTP upload? Thanking you in advance.
