I'm able to Export Types data. When I attempt to Import as XML or ZIP file I get a lot of error messages without importing anything. How do I solve?

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I would additionally need your permission to de- and re-activate Plugins and the Theme, and to change configurations on the site. This is also a reason the backup is really important. If you agree to this, please use the form fields I have enabled below to provide temporary access details (wp-admin and FTP).

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

Sorry but I just see "see note above" comment from your side. I did not aware about that. I've removed your debug information form the reply you requested.

I can confirm this "bug"(?). Same issues here. Please look into this thread:
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/bugs-in-parametric-search-javascript-ajax-in-views-2-1/

There you (supporters) will find a private message. It contains a download link and login credentials. With this you can investigate the export fails. Simply try to export types.

Yes - I tired of exporting your types and then try to import it but I got same errors but when I export types from my test install and try to import it on my another local site I do not face any issue.

I'm escalating to next level, Please hold on for more update here.

#419143

Any update, Minesh? I need to duplicate many sites with the same Types & Views created elsewhere. I wish too, that all the post types, fields, taxonomies, content templates, views, etc., had a Date Modified feature so I can tell which copy is the latest version across multiple sites.

We have try to resave the tags and categories on your site from:
=> Toolset => Taxonomies

Then, I've try to exported the settings and successfully imported the file locally. Could you please check now..

#421249

I'm still not able to import Types. I went to two sites (A & B) within my multisite. I resaved all categories and taxonomies (I have no Tags) of both the import and export sites. Cleared cache. I then exported from site-A. I tried to import into site-B when errors occured. Not as many as before but still prevents me from using this toolset feature. I tried same on several different sites. Is there another way to import/export Post Fields? Thank you! Below is errors:
