I downloaded the latest release (1.0.3) but every time I go to upload a page, the program crashes. Also, occasionally (when publishing was working), I would get a blank window, and nothing would happen. When I cancelled and tried it again, it would work.

@siamon, You can [download v1.0](https://dl.devant.io/v1/38920638-e136-450b-a83f-5c0728a3bbc0/23688/Elements) and just publish your site with that version until the next build (due out early next week).

@siamon, Scrap that, seems @tpbradley has worked his magic and we have a new build with a fix in already!

Let us know how you get on.

It only crashes when I publish a single page. When I republish everything, it works. Although, it takes two tries for the action to take place.

Is that still the case with the new build, v1.0.4?
