Hi all, My name is Dennis Bressack, I have an older version of RapidWeaver that my website is on. It it located on an Apple MacBook Pro with an older operating system, Catalina. I just purchased an new MacBook Air., on which I want to create an updated version of my website. Is there a professional that can help me to transfer content and help me to build a new website on Elements? Thanks so much. Dennis ---

Hi Again, Or if building the website on Classic is more appropriate, then I can ask for help in doing that. Thank you. Dennis Bressack ---

Do you have a link to the live site? It may be the case, depending on it’s complexity, that a rebuild from scratch in elements would be simpler/ ---

Ooooo, a fair chunk of content there. As has been said above you can try the classic to elements approach, Else it will be a fair number of hours to engage a web dev to recreate it. ---

Looked at the site - good job 👍 Getting an elements website will be very nice for you… the change in speed of delivery to the end user and polish will be dramatic… I notice you don’t have https… most web hosting companies offer free certificates - perhaps something to look into… ---

Is there someone that can utilize the content, prose, pottery, music, photos and develop a new site on elements and have me able to add contents afterwards. ---

I would have loved to help, but there is too much content for me to dedicate the time to your project. There are a bunch of professional designers here though, so I hope someone will take the job on for you. ---

You’ve got a lot of stuff… Perhaps look at website templates? Then you can watch videos on how to import your content? What are you looking for? A page starter for each section? Or? You have so many diverse projects… ---

Hi, What would the cost be for you to help me? Can I end up with a similar website with poems, prose, blog, music, photos, videos, shopping cart(if I want one)? Then I would want to be able to add content myself or with guidance. Thank you. Dennis Thank you. ---
