[Resolved] Export Methods

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
Can you clarify please the difference/s between using Toolset Module Manager or just going to Toolset > Export/Import?

Solution:

Actually there is a difference.

So with the Module Manager you have the option to create a single export file with different component from each of our Plugins.

Lets say you create a messaging system with Types, Toolset Forms and Views . However you do have other components in each of our plugins but you don't want to export all the different items.

You can create a separate module with each of the items that you create and just export those only.

While with each of the export functionality with Types, Forms and Views you will export all the components and not a specific component that you need.

Hi Juilie,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Please let me know if this explanation is clear enough or if further explanation is needed.

Thanks,
Shane
