Hello, I have been using RapidWeaver for many years to build a website for my brand consultancy business (it is really an electronic business card providing access to creds, thought pieces, ideologies and background information that a potential clients might use to check out my offering rather than being an online sales channel). The web address is: https://www.lucasbrand.com.
I have been disillusioned by RealMac’s move to Elements with its expensive subscription model—probably fine for regular users, but I only update my one website a couple of times a year. My question is, how easy would it be to convert what I have into Blocs? Can any of the Stacks that I used to build it be carried over or would I have to start again from scratch? Is there anything there that cannot be replicated in Blocs?
Forgive my digital naivety and lack of developer competence, but I was quite pleased with what I had managed to put together and would like to carry over the best bits and improve on the worst. Is Blocs the right solution? Many thanks!
Hey @keithlucas welcome to the Blocs community, hopefully we can help.
Visually I think you would be able to build your website in Blocs fairly easily. However, before we get into that, which stacks are you using with your current site?
Hi Keith,
Welcome to the Blocs Community! One thing to keep in mind is that Blocs is much more capable out of the box. Many things you’ve used Stacks for in RW can be built using just Blocs. Of course, there might be some specific functions that work slightly differently, but as long as you’re flexible and willing to adjust a few details, I’m sure you can create an even better version of your RW website with the Blocs app.
Cheers,
Eldar
P.S. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you need any help.
