[Pro] Thinking of Finally Upgrading to v6

So, I’ve had to get involved in other non-web endeavors for quite a while (still doing them), but now have to get back into web design.

I have not upgraded to v6 yet, and am working on the latest version before that. Is there a huge learning curve to get started in v6? For now, I will be starting sites fresh, not updating older ones.

And. can someone point me to info regarding having the two version running on the same machine simultaneously?

I have another question, which I will resrve for another post!

Thanks.

No - you can treat 6 like your previous version, if you want to.

However there is more in 6 that makes the inline and responsive methods easier - but if you weren’t doing that before 6 makes it easier to learn.

And yes - you can run 5.6.5 and 6 side by side.

The only thing you can’t do is open a file in 6, edit it in some way, save it, and then re-open it in 5.x. But when you open your 5.x file for the first time in 6, Freeway will make a backup before it lets you edit. You always have a way back.

OK. Thanks, guys.

I’ve loaded v5.5 on my iMac running 10.8.5 and was looking for the Actions folder. Don’t seem to see it anywhere.

The only place I have it is on a backup disc with the same file structure I had on my old iMac.

Could it be picking it up from that? Should I move it to a particular place?

It was under ApplicationSupport on the old iMac, but nothing Freeway related seems to be there or anywhere on this iMac.

You miss probably the library folder?

Ah…I forgot about that!

Thanks, Thomas.
