cleanCarousel RapidWeaver Stack by 1LD

cleanCarousel 2.0.0 Update

This is a pretty huge update that adds some new features and customization options for cleanCarousel and is largely a result of all the excellent feedback and feature requests we’ve received. If you requested a feature you don’t see in this update it is likely scheduled for another update in the near future. Thanks for all your feedback (you know who you are).

  • Constant Run (slow & constant cycling – hover stop disabled)
  • Button Types (2 styles and lots of colors)
  • Outer Buttons (displays buttons outside of carousel – padding needed)
  • Hover Pause
  • Grayscale Effect (modern browsers will show images in grayscale and color is restored when the mouse hovers over)
  • Transparent Effect {adds a transparency to images – full opacity is restored on hover)

cleanCaps RapidWeaver Stack icon

cleanCaps 1.2.1 Update

cleanCaps RapidWeaver Stack iconThis version of cleanCaps was designed to make the backend customization section easier to manage by placing the sections (previously organized with dividers) into collapsable sections. In addition, the Custom Bg option was removed and replaced with a Transparent Bg checkbox option as transparency was the main purpose for this section and the only one I could find customers using. However, you can still add a custom background image or pattern with a snippet, which I will include in the tutorial / manual for cleanCaps. Finally, the icon has also been changed as it appears on this page.

Stacks Not Working?

The version you need is Stacks 2.1.8

If you are experiencing any of your Stacks not working on your page that you have purchased from us (and likely many purchased from other developers) please download the update for Stacks 2 that should appear as a pop-up window when you next start RapidWeaver.

I’m uncertain as to what is causing the error, but I’ve heard the problem may have been caused by a jQuery update and a Google API update or change. The latest Stacks patch resolves this issue and will restore jQuery functionality, which is extremely important if a Stack uses the built-in jQuery API call that Stacks allows developers to call.

Stacks that we have developed that will be affected: cleanAccordion, cleanTabs, twitterConnect, Hang Glider, Cyklone Links, Cyklone Pix.

Summary:

  1. Restart RapidWeaver
  2. The Stacks patch will appear in a window
  3. Download & Install the patch
  4. Publish your website
  5. You’re done!

More information on this at the RealMac Forum.

cleanTabs rapidweaver stack

cleanTabs 1.2.4 Update

cleanTabs 1.2.4 Update covers some small fixes as well as some new features.

There is now a minimum width option to protect against Tabs breaking in smaller screens. This does not make cleanTabs responsive, but does protect against screen resize breaks.

The border radius was previously set to 30, which has been reduced to 20 because 30 was simply more than was needed and wouldn’t even make a visual impact for the tabs in most occasions.

Clearfix was implemented to protect against tab content section collapsing in smaller screen sizes.

Some wording in the customization section has been changed to better fit and definitions for terms have been added to the Manual page.

Comical Morpheus Meme about RapidWeaver Advanced Search

RapidWeaver Advanced Search

We’ve had a lot of customers ask of if something like this existed and after so many times we finally said decided to make it ourselves.

RapidWeaver Advanced Search (RAS) is designed for a single reason – to help RapidWeaver customers find the addon(s) they are looking for.

RAS does this by first adding an advanced search engine with addon type, category, and developer sorting filters. After that we allow for filtering based on pricing minimum and maximums as well as ordering filters, such as the highest ranked to display ahead of lower ranked items. Finally, we allow registered users to leave comments and reviews on the addons they own.

We have no current or future intent on monetizing the website or charging users or developers. The website is purely a resource to add to the RapidWeaver market and facilitate a positive experience for customers. Further, we have no biased influence on the website in respect that all users and developers merely wish for a resource to assist them in their purchasing decisions.

We hope this serves the community well as a tool to find great RapidWeaver themes, plugins and stacks.

Check it out at RapidWeaver Advanced Search.

Simple Divider Free RapidWeaver Stack

Free RapidWeaver Divider Stack

Upon request we’ve created a Free stack for creating simple dividers inside RapidWeaver. These are extremely simple so we’ve also created the alternative to use the Snippets as some users might prefer that method.

RapidWeaver Snippets Button

Simple Divider Snippet

We’ve had several customers request coding to duplicate some of our simple looking dividers on various websites of ours. In response we decided to create a free stack call Simple Divider.

Due to the simplicity of this Stack I imagined that some users might prefer to use a snippet instead, so this post is being created for that purpose.

     padding-top: 20px;
     padding-bottom: 20px;
}
#simpleDivider .theDivider {
     width: inherit;
     border-top: solid 1px #CCC;
     border-bottom: solid 1px #FFF;
}

#simpleDivider .theDivider {

     height: 4px;
     background-color: #E0E0E0;
}

Why two <div> tags and not just one?

Placing a div tag inside of a div tag protects against spacing issues that occur when floated elements are placed above. Example, if there was simple one div tag and a margin was created for the top the margin would not display if there were certain elements floated above it, despite the clear call. The easiest solution, in my opinion, is to contain the existing tag inside another element and create padding, which will have no visible effect other than achieving the desired spacing.

RapidWeaver 5 eBook Released

The Visual Guide to Learning RapidWeaver

RapidWeaver 5 Manual (eBook)

This book is designed for beginners, though as it progresses we will address some intermediate to advanced topics. An existing understanding of website, HTML and CSS may enhance your experience, but it is in no way needed when covering the topics. RapidWeaver as a software program is specifically designed to cater to individuals seeking to create websites without any understanding of website coding and RapidWeaver does a fantastic job at it.

Both the PDF & Kindle version are rich with links that help you navigate easily through the book. The Table of Contents links correctly to all chapters, sections and sub-sections. In addition, various section will make references to topics covered in other sections of the book, which will always contain a visible link you can click on to travel to that section. Further, underlined terms can be referenced in the Glossary sections for more details or for quick use. Terms in quotation marks are referring to items being discussed in RapidWeaver that are visible on the screen in the section being discussed.

The structure of the tutorials is meant to be a very visual experience and screenshots are provided as often as possible. The tutorial structure travels step-by-step in sections and the chapters are designed to follow the workflow that I personally use when creating website’s for both myself and for clients.

The Kindle version works both on the Kindle and Kindle Fire. Additionally, if you purchase the Kindle app then you can view this version on the iPad and iPhone. There are also PDF apps available for the iPad and iPhone, which will allow you use of the PDF version.

Available for direct download, on Amazon, and Smashwords.
