Here is a new build. This mostly has a bunch of bug fixes for gallery management. It also fixes installations having some outdated cache after updates. One new feature for custom forms is the ability to add the no-delete-confirm class to your form in order to suppress the delete confirmation of an object. https://files.weavers.link/f/o8RcJL

Total CMS Custom Collection Searches

JR Howell

·Posted in Stacks
I have a question / issue when searching for items in a custom collection. I have a custom collection I called "Projects" in there is a field called "hashtags". I have added "hashtags" to the "Indexed Properties". For some reason when I search for a tag I know is in "hashtags" I don't get the records I expect. Am I doing something wrong?

Newbie Question coming from discontinued Alloy Blog

Peter Buehrer
·Posted in Total CMS 3
Longer ago, I purchased Total CMS 3.x. I didn’t have the time and knowledge to migrate or start from scratch my new blogs. I have in mind that there was a discussion about a migration path/tool for Alloy users. Honestly, I'm more of a tinkerer and prefer to assemble my projects using a 'cut and paste' approach. Total CMS 3 seems to be beyond my current skill level. Maybe there are some templates or preconfigured projects for my needs. I used to do a separate „Blog“ for each of my trips for wildlife photosafaris and using it as a diary. I used easier small stacks from here such asPhoto Proo and some more. Any hints from the community here. Cheers Peter

Hi Joe Workman, a few months ago, shortly before TCMS3 was released, I purchased a TCMS1 license. Is it still possible to create a TCMS1 site using that license? TIA

    Wow. I did it... 😍

    For those that are going to attend the summit this weekend, you are going to be the first to see the future of how we are going to build sites with Stacks. I know that I have been focusing a lot on Total CMS and AI for a while. My goal was to bring it all full circle before the summit. Today I got the first glimpse of that. I cannot wait to show it off at the summit on Friday... I hope to see you there!

I've spent some time lately fixing a few issues and polishing up the filters and search. It's powered by Total CMS 3 and BetterSiteHost, so if you think it's pretty snappy to navigate, that's why!

Free Total CMS 3 Lite license for every summit attendee 🎁

Big news for this year's Weaver's Space Summit (June 12–14). Total CMS 3 is going to be a core part of the event this year — we've got talks taking you from first install all the way through real-world content workflows. I want everyone to be able to follow along hands-on, so I'm giving every registered attendee a free Total CMS 3 Lite license before the summit starts. That's a $79 value, which brings a $99 ticket down to effectively $20. If you're already registered, you're all set — licenses will go out before June 12. If you've been on the fence, this is a pretty good time to grab a ticket. https://www.weavers.space/summit/ Some sessions will go into Standard and Pro territory too, so if you're already on a higher tier you'll get plenty out of those as well.

Columnist 3 - Newspaper style text layouts

https://www.weavers.space/stacks/columnist Columnist 3 is a complete rewrite. The bundle now ships three stacks — a text-flow Columnist, a masonry Columnist Grid, and a Columnist Swatch for Foundation integration — plus a suite of editorial features that turn plain markdown into designed editorial spreads. Three stacks in one bundle Columnist — the main text-flow stack, rewritten from scratch. Drop in markdown, styled text, or child stacks and watch your content flow into responsive columns. Columnist Grid — new masonry-style card grid with lift, grow, and color hover effects. Cards flow in a balanced layout based on content height. Columnist Card — child stack for Grid, with optional per-card style overrides. Columnist Swatch — updated Foundation swatch that emits responsive column styling for any CSS selector. Editorial styles (all new) Drop caps on the first paragraph, in Simple or Fancy serif style. No markup required. Pull quote blockquotes — a plain markdown > quote becomes a centered, magazine-style pull quote that spans all columns. An inline variant with a side-rule and italic is also available. Span headings — force H1, H1–H2, H1–H3, or all heading levels to span across every column automatically. Horizontal rule ornaments — markdown --- renders as a hairline, asterism (* * *), or floral ornament. Code styling — inline <code> as a subtle pill and fenced <pre> blocks with monospace background, with an optional wide mode that spans all columns for long code. Typography controls Widow and orphan sliders for column-break protection. Hyphenation (none / manual / auto) for clean column edges. Text-align, text-wrap (balance / pretty), and per-heading break-before / break-after controls. Paragraphs now flow freely across columns so widows and orphans settings actually do their job. Non-paragraph blocks (headings, lists, blockquotes, figures) still honor the Break Inside setting. Manual .colspan class to break any element out of column flow. Designer-friendly architecture Every setting is exposed as a CSS custom property. Override from your own stylesheet to build themes, respond to dark mode, or integrate with Foundation swatches — no forking required. Native CSS multi-column throughout. Zero JavaScript. No dependencies. Bundle structure uses a product-level updater so RapidWeaver can ship all three stacks together in a single install. Fixes and refinements Safari column-span ghost rendering mitigated with paint containment on block children. Safari compositor-layer jitter on card hover effects fixed via will-change hint. Horizontal rule ornaments render reliably by using height: min-content and overflow: visible, sidestepping Safari's UA-styled clipping. Drop cap padding swapped for margin to avoid Chrome's ::first-letter quirk. Wide code blocks no longer push mobile column layouts beyond viewport width — min-width: 0 on the container lets multi-column collapse to a single column as designed. Margins around spanning elements handled explicitly so content doesn't slam against pull quotes, ornaments, or wide code blocks. Upgrade notes Existing Columnist owners can pick up Columnist 3 at a discounted price: weavers.space/stacks/columnist Projects built with Columnist v1 or v2 will need to recreate their stack instances using the new stacks — the identifiers and settings have changed substantially.

10 Years Strong. WS Summit 2026 is here!

🗓 June 12–14, 2026 💻 Online 🎟 $99 👉 https://www.weavers.space/summit/ This is year ten. A decade of summits. I genuinely didn't know when I started this thing back in 2016 that we'd still be doing it ten years later, and that it would keep getting better. The theme this year is 10 Years · Strong, and I think that says it all. If you've been to a past summit, you already know what to expect — great talks, the hallway track hangouts that somehow end up being everyone's favorite part, and recordings you'll actually go back and watch. Your ticket includes all of that plus every session going back to the very first summit in 2016. If this is your first time hearing about it — welcome, and I'd love to see you there. The summit is three days of talks covering web design, development, SEO, freelancing, and business. Something for everyone regardless of skill level. The full speaker lineup will be announced soon. I've got some good ones lined up and I can't wait to share them with you. In the meantime, grab your spot. I'll be posting updates here as things come together. Learn. Teach. Have Fun. 🎉 Cheers, Joe

PaySnap is Back — Now Under Weaver's Space 🛒

I’m excited to officially announce that PaySnap is relaunching under the Weaver’s Space brand today. For those who don’t know it: PaySnap is a full shopping cart and checkout solution built entirely in Stacks. Product catalog, variants, cart, and checkout — no monthly platform fees, no third-party hosted storefront. Just PaySnap, a PayPal or Stripe account, and something to sell. I acquired PaySnap from Yabdab as part of the broader product suite, and I didn’t want to just slap a new logo on it and ship it. Before the relaunch I’ve already made a round of improvements: Fixed cart total updating issues Fixed quantity field for PayPal checkout Improved compatibility with Total CMS 3 Loops and Feeds Multiple security fixes and code cleanup Better jQuery compatibility across versions It’s now available at https://www.weavers.space/stacks/paysnap If you’re an existing PaySnap 3 customer: your license upgrades to v3.2 for free. Just check for updates in Stacks. What it does: Build product listings with up to 20 options per item, with per-option pricing Accept payments via PayPal or Stripe Checkout Full cart experience — thumbnails, expiring carts, dynamic cart button totals Pay-what-you-want / donation mode Out-of-stock controls, localization, 20 currencies Everything lives in local storage, so customers stay on your site until checkout If you’ve been looking for a way to add a real store to a client site without locking them into Shopify or Squarespace fees, this is worth a look. Tutorials are in the works. In the meantime, the product page has a working demo and the full feature breakdown: 👉 https://www.weavers.space/stacks/paysnap Questions or feedback — I’d love to hear from you below.
