Importing and Exporting Demos​

  1. Navigate to the Nectarblocks admin tab and then select the Import/Export tab.

  2. Click on the demo you want to import.

  3. Select which part of the demos you want to install. If the Nectarblocks theme is inactive you will not be able to install the Theme Options.

  4. Click Import Demo. The server will process the demo files and import them into your site. Downloading images could take longer than the default PHP/Wordpress timeout, so you might need to hit the import button multiple times. The import process will continue from where it left off.
