I upgraded to 6.3.3 (from 6.3.2) today and it appears that custom backgrounds in the Reason theme no longer work. It was find in 6.3.2. How can I get 6.3.2 back? ---

While publishing has always been a ‘hit or miss’ with multiple attempts sometimes required, 6.3.3 doesn’t really work for me at all. The tricks that I have tried before (e.g. testing setting, quitting RW and fussing quietly) simply won’t work. ---

The latest upgrades have made Rapidweaver run incredibly slow. The spinning wheel in between changes to a page is driving me crazy. All my add-ons are up to date. Stacks 3 didn’t help either. My other apps are running fine on my MacBook. Anyone else having these issues? ---

Same thing here. Upgrade to 6.3.3 has slowed uploads to a crawl. Don’t know if it’s the combined Stacks 3 and 6.3.3. ---

I agree - RW 6.3.3. has slowed uploads considerably. I have not yet updated Stacks to 3. @nikf I have sent you email with links to Dropbox files to download. ---

RapidWeaver 6.3.3 has no FTP changes vs 6.3.2. If uploads have _slowed_ but are still going that’s likely a network issue (and one variable we can’t control). —N ---

I notice, too, that saving the project fie takes a long time. And, uploading the project started with a complete upload of some 400 files - while changes were made to only 2 or so. After the last upload I tested it: Clicked “upload” and it started to upload all 400 although there had not been any change. Franz ---

Which pages have you changed? A blog page? If there’s sub-pages (tags etc) that need updating, this may account for why these pages are also uploaded. Thanks! ---

Given that changes in RW 6.3.3 I’d be surprised if it were fixed by downgrading. Could we get a copy of your project file to test this? PlusKit complicates things, but we can certainly check it out. ---

This is absolutely not a network issue. Publishing is extremely slow and, actually I have never seen a successful published site since I upgrade to 6.3.3 . ---

I have a small test project. With PlusKit in the project, RW always publish 19 files, without any changes, always 19 files. ![](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/1X/7c84d0d659ae05fe5ffe1c1036a103207043e5eb.png) When I make a change in a page, RW publish only 2, 3 files. After, without changes in any page, RW publish again 19 files! Strange! When I delete the PlusKit page, RW publish 1 file, when I make a change in a page. Without any changes, RW publish nothing, after exporting. I think, RW works perfekt, but the PlusKit plugin brings a problem! ---

With me is the situation the same, also with RW 6.3.2. 19 files published with PlusKit in the project 😉 ---

Genuinely surprised to hear that. As noted, there are no code-changes that would affect the speed of publishing in 6.3.3. We’ll take a look again, however. ---

I am also having problems after upgrading to RW 6.3.3 and Stacks 3. The first edit to a couple of pages caused my entire site to be republished (1158 files) which took hours. Today I made a small change to a single page, and again RW wants to publish 1158 files once again. I do have a PlusKit page in my site files. ---

When the code is in a Stacks page, no problem! Nothing to do with Stacks, I think.
