Porting customiser settings of GP and GPP to child theme
3 replies · Started by Anil on April 21, 2022
Hi David
I would like to create one child theme of GP (as per my liking) for all of my sites.
Can I port customiser settings to child theme so that I need not to change anything in customiser for each site of mine.
In other words, I like to create a child theme like themes in your site library....
Regards.
Hi there,
the Site Library sites are not child themes, the best way to replicate that functionality is to use the Duplicator Plugin.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/
It will package your site into an exportable file, which will include all settings and any posts you may have saved ( including GP Elements, media etc ), and then its just a case of installing that plugin and importing your site package.
David,
Can I create site library site for my own use ?
Regards
The GP Site Library is a custom development, and very complex - it relies on its own multisite WP install for storing and previewing each site as well as handling the exporting of site packages. Definitely not easy to replicate.
But underneath the premise is the same as the Duplicator plugin ( ie. save a WP install as an exportable package that can be imported to any other install ) just with lots of checks and security layers.
