The end of an era…
After 10 years offering plugins for RapidWeaver I have now decided to no longer continue to sell any plugins. It was a decision that took a long time to take but in the end I cannot continue keeping them updated in a timely manner for each RapidWeaver update. And due to that I no longer feel comfortable accepting money for my plugins.
I will therefor be removing the store from my website…but the plugins will still be available. And everyone who downloaded and bought a license can continue using them as long as they are working. I may at some point update them again, but that will be when I feel a need for it and have time to devote to them.
It has been a great time working with these plugins. I learnt a lot from them and made some friends online thanks to them…some who unfortunately no longer are with us. I know I helped a lot of people with these plugins, especially in a time when there were not so many alternatives available to what my plugins offered. Like storing snippets inside RapidWeaver…or blogging online without access to you Mac with RapidWeaver. These days there is a plethora of options available…so that also make the decision easier to step down.
So goodbye for now…and happy weaving! 🙂
RapidWeaver 7
A little Elf told me that RapidWeaver 7 was just released 🙂
I know some of you have been wondering if WP-Blog and @stash will work with RapidWeaver 7…and the answer is…yes, they should work. If you download the latest versions they should work just fine. And if you notice something that isn’t working as it should…just drop me a mail and I will look at it.
My website has fallen behind a bit lately…and it might look like my plugins are not updated anymore. And some of that is true…I haven’t done much to my website in the recent years. But my main two plugins have been updated for RapidWeaver 6…and they will/should work just fine with RapidWeaver 7.
As a helper…here are the links to the latest versions of both @stash and WP-Blog:
stash v1.4b2 – The El Capitan edition
OS X El Capitan is now released into the wild. And here comes a new public beta of @stash for RW6. This release fixes a crash that could happen when you quit RW6. So it is a must to upgrade to this version if you are going to upgrade to El Capitan.
Download:
- @stash public beta for RapidWeaver 6, @stash v1.4b2-151
RapidWeaver 6 plugins
Since I have not yet updated my website with versions of my plugins for RapidWeaver 6 i’m posting links to them here. The @stash version for RapidWeaver 6 still lacks some minor features that are present in the RapidWeaver 5 version. But the main features works fine.
Download:
- WP-Blog for RapidWeaver 6, WP-Blog v1.2.3
- @stash public beta for RapidWeaver 6, @stash v1.4b1

Stash and RapidWeaver 6
In my State of the Union I wrote that I would do my best to have a new version of Stash ready for the launch of RapidWeaver 6. Unfortunately I hit a few roadbumps so I did not make it. I’m sorry about that.
I have a version working but due to some internal changes it is not 100% ready. And it may take me a while longer to have it polished enough to release as a full version. It is mostly UI features that are not ready. The core functionality is working.
Due to the number of requests for a version that supports migration to RapidWeaver 6 i’m going to release a public beta that will allow you to make the transition. It will probably take me a day or two to get the beta in shape and document it’s limitations. So keep an eye open towards this blog or my Twitter stream. That is were you will hear about it first.
WP-Blog v1.2.1
It’s time to update to WP-Blog v1.2.1.
This version fixes migration to RapidWeaver 6. This was unfortunately broken in v1.2.
To see what is new in v1.2.1 check out the changelog.
This is a free update and requires RapidWeaver 5.4 or 6.x and OS X >= 10.7.
Go grab your copy now…
WP-Blog v1.2
It’s time to update to WP-Blog v1.2.
This version is the Road to the future. When RapidWeaver 6 is launched for the very first time this version will automatically migrate over.
To see what is new in v1.2 check out the changelog.
This is a free update and requires RapidWeaver 5.4 or 6.x and OS X >= 10.7.

State of the union…and RapidWeaver 6
Realmac Software has announced that RapidWeaver 6 will be made available on October 21st next week.
RapidWeaver 6 is a big leap forward and it will allow a lot of new magic stuff to be done. When it comes to third-party plugins this release requires new version of plugins to be released. Existing plugins will not work with RapidWeaver 6. But there will be a migration path for plugins so that existing plugins for RapidWeaver 5 will be migrated over to RapidWeaver 6 upon first launch, if the old plugins supports that.
I have been working for some time to update my plugins for RapidWeaver 6 and here is my status:
- WP-Blog is almost ready. A new version for RapidWeaver 5 that supports migration will be available before the release of RapidWeaver 6.
- @stash is currently work in progress. I will do my best to be ready before the release of RapidWeaver 6. But I cannot guarantee that it will be ready for the launch of RapidWeaver 6.
- FlexibleList and High-Light have not yet been updated and I have still not decided if they will be updated.
So please stay tuned and watch this blog and my Twitter account for latest news about my plugins.
