<p>Import Export Menu makes it easy to move WordPress navigation menus between sites and manage them from one place. Export a menu to a portable file, then import it into another WordPress install — keeping the menu hierarchy, theme location assignments, and per-item settings intact.</p>
<p>Unlike a raw JSON dump, the importer remaps each menu item to the matching content on the target site (by slug, path, then title), so links keep working after a migration instead of pointing at the wrong post ID.</p>
<p>Beyond import and export, manage every menu from one dashboard: duplicate or delete menus, and control who sees each item with per-item visibility rules (everyone, logged-in, or logged-out).</p>
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Menus dashboard — see every menu with its item count, theme location, and last-modified date at a glance.</li>
<li>Duplicate any menu in one click (items, hierarchy, and visibility rules included), or delete one with a safety confirmation.</li>
<li>Per-item visibility — show or hide each menu item for everyone, logged-in users only, or logged-out visitors only.</li>
<li>Export one menu, several, or every menu at once to a portable file.</li>
<li>Import menus back into any WordPress site, and optionally assign the imported menu to a theme location.</li>
<li>Smart object remapping so menu items resolve to the right content on the target site.</li>
<li>Preserves menu hierarchy, item order, CSS classes, and theme location assignments.</li>
<li>Choose how to import: create a new menu, replace an existing one, or merge — with a one-click undo of the last import.</li>
<li>Works with any theme that uses the standard WordPress menu system.</li>
</ul>

<p>Menu Backup & Restore protects every WordPress menu, both classic <code>nav_menu</code> menus and block-theme <code>wp_navigation</code> posts edited in the Site Editor, with automatic backups, one-click restoration, and powerful import/export capabilities. Transfer menus between sites seamlessly with intelligent per-item mapping that rewrites page, post, and category references for the target site.</p>

<li>In-place restore replaces the existing menu directly, no duplicate menus, theme locations stay assigned</li>
<li>Import and export menus as JSON files for portability or locally saved backups</li>
<li>Multi-menu export and import — select multiple menus or backups to export in a single file</li>

<h4>How It Works</h4>

<li>Manage backups from the legacy Menus page (classic themes), the Appearance > Menu Backups page (block themes), or inline from the Site Editor inspector when editing a Navigation block — rename, export, delete, restore, or bulk-select</li>
<li>Restore any previous version with a single click, the existing menu is updated in-place, keeping theme locations intact</li>
<li>Export one or multiple menus as a single JSON file for portability or import to other sites</li>
<li>Configure the maximum number of backups to keep in the settings</li>
</ol>
<h4>Requirements</h4>
<ul>
<li>WordPress 5.0 or higher</li>
<li>PHP 7.2 or higher</li>
</ul>
<h4>What Users Have to Say on Reddit</h4>
<p>“That’s a super useful idea! Menus are so easy to wipe out by accident, and restoring from a full backup always feels like overkill. Nice work!”</p>
<p>“Really appreciate it, This will come in handy alot!”</p>
<p>“Oh man, I’ve done this before too. Lost a big menu while trying to rearrange items and it was gone in a click. Ended up re-building from scratch.<br />
This plugin sounds like a lifesaver — surprised WordPress hasn’t built something like this in by default.”</p>
<p>“Kind of an automatic backup vs having to schedule one.”</p>
<p>“that’s a killer quality of life plugin wp’s missing so many of those “one click undo” features for common mistakes”</p>
<p>“Great idea! I do this more often than I care to admit. This needs to be in Core!”</p>
<p>“Dude I literally do this all the time and actually did it less than an hour ago. I hate how the WordPress menu isn’t stored normally. Thanks for this!”</p>
