I thought I’d say a few words about my experience here. Not only did I upgrade from 5-6, but also migrated from one machine to another. Any switch like this will cause one or two headaches, but I have to say that every issue has been sorted in very quick time. Special thanks goes to @willwood. This guy doesn’t promote his stuff as much as others do, but the themes are first class and the service is second to none. I have had many admire how good my website looks thanks to Will’s hard work and to replicate the functionality I have would cost a few thousand. Thanks also to Mike @yabdab who responded within minutes of my asking for help and also to Aaron and Brian at Realmac support. I was concerned about FTP, but I’ve had the fastest uploads ever (despite being forced from Fibre to broadband - moved house as well). Armadillo’s 1.7 upgrade seems to offer a reasonable comparison to what I would want from a Wordpress blog and Rapidcart Pro and Formloom 3 are on the shopping list. I will be honest and say that I was considering switching, but I’m happy to say that I love using the programme again. I hope the new forum can be a turning point to see lots of positivity and an end to the (sometimes justified) complaints about RW. I look forward to being a part of the helpful and supportive community as it goes from strength to strength. I think RW6 is great. Thanks everyone for your help and support. Bazza ---

Glad you had such a great experience. I’m finding 6 very nice too. Armadillo has evolved from a good to a great product! ---

I agree with you 😉 I love using Rapidweaver, although the learning curve has been pretty substantial for me (and ever changing), I’m aware that I don’t know enough about most aspects of it, but I’m loving using it 😉 Thank you to everyone involved in creating Rapidweaver and all aspects surrounding it, it’s a fabulous tool! 😉 ---

I upgraded from 5 to 6 but none of the add ons came along. How do I get my Stacks, RapidProCart and Hives on 6? ---

The stacks you can simply copy from your application support folder. ---

Andy, The first time you launch _RW6_, it should ask you if you want to move the add ons to their new location (different from that in _RW5_). Such an option is still available under _RW6_’s **File** menu.
