All updated and ready to go [Updated]

updater380


Whew, we have finished our updates in preparing for RapidWeaver 4.0's immanent arrival.

All of our themes have been upgraded, adding in, and updating, the few files that will bring them up to date for RapidWeaver 4.0.

All of our latest themes have already been shipped with the files needed and the rest fixed today or a couple of weeks ago when we sent out other updates.

The themes updated today all got updaters, which make it easier to do the upgrades. The updater only replaces the following files within your theme(s):

Preview.Png
Preview_Large.jpg
Theme.Plist

All other files within the theme go untouched.

For the updater to work your themes must be located in the Library>Application Support>RapidWeaver folder located in your User folder. If you're unsure what this means, then you have probably not moved your themes or modified them. The updaters will only work with the theme installed. Without the theme it is useless.

Also, people have asked whether changes they have made themselves to their Theme.Plist file will get overwritten. Yes. This updater replaces that file. Be sure to back it up if necessary before running the updater.

Here are the updaters once again from today:

CloudDownload Updater
DarkDownload Updater
LightDownload Updater
OrganicDownload Updater
OrigamiDownload Updater
PaperDownload Updater
PlasticDownload Updater
RibbonDownload Updater
SproutDownload Updater
ToastDownload Updater

Again, all of our themes have been updated for 4.0 or shipped with the needed files at their release. So if your theme is not on this list, it is already ready for RW 4.0.

[Update]: Many have asked if the updated themes will work with RapidWeaver 3.6. Yes. The new and updated files provided by these updaters have no adverse affects on RapidWeaver 3.6.

Chameleon was updated 2 or so weeks ago in a full theme update.

As stated in the blog post, if it is not on this list, it was updated previously (approximately 2 weeks ago).
