The big 400!

Our members list has reached new heights today; 400 legitimate, reachable members! Sure we have come close in the past but with each new mailing that goes out, I have to delete a half dozen names from the list, ones that get bounced, fail or otherwise just don't exist. But having recently cleaned the list and with a few new submissions today, we are finally in the position to confidently boast our 400th member! Yeah! You can sign up for member discounts on RapidWeaver themes too by going to our member signup page.

Keeping you on the edGe!

A very new spin on an old theme is due to arrive soon. We are talking about edGy, which is soon to see a dramatic update. Not only will it have the full RapidWeaver 3.6 feature set, including color picker options, but it will have many new features that will make this new version infinitely more versatile than the original version. I don't want to give away too much at this point, but one of edGy's main drawbacks was it's inflexible size which many found too narrow... you can expect that to change in the new version. Stay tuned.

New snippet: 3 column layout

WHAT IS "3 column layout"?

"3 column layout" is exactly what it sounds like, it allows you to insert 3 columns directly into your Styled text page, HTML page, Blocks page, ect... Where ever you have room to put 3 columns you can easy add this snippet. Heck, you can even put this in your sidebar, footer or any place in RapidWeaver that allows you to enter text. Want 4 columns? Leave your sidebar on. There really is no limit to the way's you can play with this code.

HOW TO INSTALL

To install "3 column layout", double click the rwsnippet or drag and drop the file into ~/Library/Application Support/RapidWeaver/Snippets.

HOW TO USE "3 column layout"

Find "3 column layout" in your snippet panel (cmd+5 or View > Show Snippets), select it and drag it into your project. If you are using this snippet in any styled text area (Styled text, Columns, Blocks, Carousel, Accordion, Lockdown, Blog, RapidBlog, FAQ Maker, etc...), you need to select the snippet code from beginning to end and type cmd+period or Format > Ignore Formatting.

Now all that's left to do is replace the Lorem Ipsum text and headers with your own content.

New cart discount code

There are three questions we get a lot
  1. Do you sell theme bundles?
  2. Do you have just one discount code I can use instead of having one for each theme?
  3. Do I get a discount if I buy all your themes?
Well now the answer to all three is now YES... well sort of. We now have cart discount code that you can apply to anything you purchase; so whether it's one RapidWeaver theme, four themes, or all themes you can get 20% off no matter what. So make your own bundle and get 20% off.

It's kept me busy figuring out the best storefront options and what not. So I am proud to show off Torudog.com as this site #14 in our site of the week category. Toru - Rock your dogs world, is all about rock star style for dogs and selling what they preach. I had a lot of fun working on this project.

What's the true cost of "Free"?

I read an interesting article this morning by Gary at Rapid Weaver Themes . com, one of my colleagues in thie RapidWeaver theme game. It addresses the latest influx of "Free" themes available today and what the cost of "Free" actually is.

It's a good read and worth checking out.
