## Descripción

Import and export your block based theme design: global/custom styles, templates,
template parts and patterns.

Easily move your custom full site editing theme design from one website to another,
or from a local installation to a live site.

Ideal for designers and developers working with the Site Editor and a block based
full-site-editing theme, who have edited their block based custom styles, templates,
template parts and patterns, and now need to copy that design over to a new WordPress
installation.

The Design Import/Export plugin allows this to be done with minimal fuss, and can
also be used to take regular backups of your block theme based design(s).

Works with any full-site-editing block theme.

Finally, a way to compensate for the lack of an essential feature in FSE: the ability
to save custom style settings. Thank you for making this possible while we wait 
for FSE to add this feature.

This plugin fixes a huge hole in WordPress and allows you to easily copy your entire
customised theme from one site to another. This is invaluable for moving from a 
local development site to a live site, for copying your work from one site to another,
or simply for backing things up in an easily portable format. I used this on the
current latest version of WordPress (v6.4.3) and it worked with zero issues. I was
copying a highly customised version of Twenty Twenty Three with some complex templates
and it worked without a hitch. I’m definitely adding this plugin to my list of default
installs.

Very good, just what I need. After a quick test it seems just what is needed to 
develop customisations on a staging server then quickly transfer them to a live 
server. Greatly eases the task of migrating a site to a new theme.

I’m working on a theme who’s slug I had to correct, which caused loss of all the
template parts. I used this plugin to export the parts from the broken theme, searched
and replaced the bad slug with the new slug and then ran the import, worked absolutely
perfect. Thanks folks!
