Quickly and easily import and export your block based full site editing theme design: global/custom styles, templates, template parts and patterns.

== Description ==

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.

== Installation ==

**From your WordPress dashboard**

1. Visit 'Plugins > Add New',
2. Search for 'design import export' and install the plugin.
3. Activate 'Design Import/Export' from your Plugins page.

Once the plugin is activated you will find the plugin page in **Design Import/Export**
