We just purchased toolset for one site and we're trying to export/import settings (type, view etc) from another site. On the site we're exporting from we have the option to export a view (see screenshot)but there's no tab for this on the new site (see screenshot). The individual plug-ins seem different between sites - on the old one there's a separate plug-in for views but on the new one it's part of Toolset blocks.

Is there a way we can export views and other information from the old to new site?

Hello,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Are the views from the old site built with the block editor or were they built using the views classic editor.

Please let me know.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi - I'm not sure as it wasn't me who built them. Sorry. How can I tell?

Thanks

Hi Kira,

You can check by going to Toolset -> Views and see if you're able to edit your views from there. If you don't have the Toolset -> Views option then this means your views were built using the block builder and unfortunately you won't be export these views without migrating the entire website.

Thanks,
Shane
