Design Import/Export – Styles, Templates, Template Parts and Patterns

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!

Superb tool, thanks!


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.

<h4>Plugin’s purpose</h4>
<p>This plugin fixes styling issues introduced in WordPress 5.9.</p>
<h4>👍 When to use this plugin</h4>
<ul>
<li>✅ Your WordPress is of version 5.9 or newer</li>
<li>✅ You are using a theme that supports block editor (Gutenberg) features such as preset font sizes and color palette</li>
<li>✅ Your theme does not support <a href="https://wordpress.org/news/2022/01/josephine/" rel="ugc">full site editing (FSE) feature</a> (from <a href="https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/38252" rel="nofollow ugc">conversation about reported issues</a> it seems they affect Gutenberg-ready themes only and FSE themes should be fine)</li>
<li>✅ You experience font size or color issues on your website after WordPress 5.9 update</li>
<li>✅ Your theme has not been updated to fix these issues</li>
</ul>
<h4>✋ When NOT to use this plugin</h4>
<ul>
<li>You are not using WordPress 5.9 or newer</li>
<li>Your theme was updated and is fixing the issues</li>
<li>Your theme does not support block editor features (such as preset color palette or font sizes)</li>
<li>Your theme is <a href="https://wordpress.org/news/2022/01/josephine/" rel="ugc">full site editing (FSE) ready</a></li>
<li>You don’t experience any font size or color issues on your website after updating to WordPress 5.9</li>
</ul>
<h4>Technical info</h4>
<p>WordPress 5.9 started applying <code>!important</code> rule and is setting up CSS properties (CSS variables) within <code>body</code> selector in its global styles code. This rises the global styles specificity and may override styles coming from themes and plugins. (For more info about this change check <a href="https://make.wordpress.org/core/2022/01/08/updates-for-settings-styles-and-theme-json/#changes-to-the-global-stylesheet" rel="nofollow ugc">“Updates for Settings, Styles, and theme.json” article</a>.)</p>
<p><strong>Global Styles Mods</strong> plugin lowers the specificity of WordPress 5.9 global CSS styles by removing <code>!important</code> rules and changing <code>body</code> to <code>:root</code> selector for setting up WordPress CSS properties (CSS variables).</p>
<p>It also enqueues the global styles early enough so your theme or plugin stylesheet have a better chance to override global styles with minimal effort.</p>
<p>The fix applied is coming from issue <a href="https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/38252#issuecomment-1024348024" rel="nofollow ugc">conversation in Gutenberg GitHub repository</a>.</p>
