Hi, I have a single post template I am using for my site and it is visible in General tab in Cloud Templates section.
Now I’d like to use it as a base and rework it for my custom post type. But I cannot find a way to do it. When i go to tab CPT/Taxonomies it only allows me to import from cloud templates or to work on a blank one.
Is there a way I can just reuse what I did for single post and modify it by removing/adding in composer what i want?
Thank you!
I found a workaround (or maybe the only way).
I just opened both in separate tabs in composer and I am using copy paste row by row. It does the job, just curious if there is an import/export option for the whole custom templates we create also for the moving between various sites.
Hello,
You can save row/element with right-click. and use it in other template. Also, please note that some elements are specific for that template, like single post content and so on.
Using the import/export option from the theme will allow you to import only the theme panel settings, the cloud templates go in tool > export – https://i.imgur.com/3Wxk885.png then to import you need to go in tool > import then install the wordpress importer and click on run import – https://i.imgur.com/tyxoVvg.png
Thank you!
Thank you Anamaria. That was great answer! I was not aware that we can use Tools -> Import/Export. Will definitely help in some projects.
and where are the templates?
I try this also. i need a single post to be used on cpt but I can’t use it or add it.
Thank you
Hi Ling,
You can not use a single post template on CPT; for CPT, you need to use a single CPT template.
