Advice is always available.Not all of us were graced with the coding know-how to build a site from the ground-but that's okay! RapidWeaver 8 is the intuitive Mac web design app that lets you build your own beautiful, responsive, websites without having to write a line of code. If you need help or have further questions, please get in touch by email. It has been decided to do it at this time of year, because typically client workloads are less and the holiday period is a good opportunity to weed-through those old receipts and download links. Do take advantage of this final free update window, before it closes for good at the end of December. The big administrative saving it brings ensures more time can be dedicated towards actual development of RapidWeaver addons. I hope all readers of this discussion understand the need for this cut-off point to be set. This post is mostly targeted at the ‘under the radar’ customers who may not have already transitioned their past purchases across to Paddle yet. Of course, this will not effect addons that are already listed in your Paddle account or the smaller incremental updates you get automatically in RapidWeaver. Things are getting quite messy and not always especially pleasant to deal with. The consensus is that some of these named companies were taken over more-than 5 years ago! I am of the opinion that a majority of customers who are still actively using these addons and retain an interest in RapidWeaver have already updated long before now.Ī line needs to be drawn and we need to set a definitive deadline for issuing free updates. This post is to announce that the “grace period” or “update window” closes on 1st January 2019.Īfter this date, any addons purchased from the above named companies and not already listed in your Paddle account will no longer be eligible for coupon codes or free updates. Some of the issued coupon codes we send out do not even get used. We get zero revenue for providing these updated addons - which in some instances are entirely new addons with only their name remaining unchanged. Sadly some of the customers we are dealing with are not as friendly or as honest as you might expect all RapidWeaver users to be! It’s rare to get a “thank you” back in exchange for providing free updates. However it’s reaching the point now that there is an increasing amount of extra administrative work required in receiving ‘proof of purchase’ from customers by email, sending out update instructions and generating 100% coupon codes. Paddle does a really good job of centralising addon purchases and making them available at anytime. It’s worked great, because lots of people have been able to make contact and get hold of free updates. These coupon codes have allowed customers to re-buy updated addons they need and add them to their Paddle accounts for prosperity. We have handled the updates efficiently through means of requesting proof of purchase from customers and providing qualifying customers with 100% coupon codes, normally valid for 48 hours. Many thousands of customers have successfully requested free updates for all that I have updated. Because I wanted to offer these addons a safe home and promised to continue maintaining and supporting them.Īs part of the contractual agreements, I have tried to update as many of the addons as possible and re-list them on websites like ThemeFlood, Stacks4Stacks, SeyDesign, RWExtras and RapidSearchPro. I engaged in formal business agreements with their past owners. These were not addons or companies given to me for free.
