Customizer Reset – Export & Import

Description

Customizer Reset adds three simple tools to the bottom of the WordPress Customizer: reset, export and import. Start fresh with one click, or move your Customizer settings to another site or child theme in seconds.

Features

🔄 Reset the Customizer

Made a mess in the Customizer and want to start over without undoing every setting by hand? Reset all Customizer settings of the active theme with one click.

📤 Export Customizer settings

Take a snapshot of your Customizer settings and download it as a JSON file. Great as a backup before you try something new.

📥 Import Customizer settings

Import an export file to move your settings to another WordPress site or child theme. Images used in your settings (e.g. the logo or header image) are imported into the media library too.

🎨 Works with any theme

Customizer Reset works with every theme that uses the WordPress Customizer. It was originally built as a helper plugin for the Page Builder Framework theme.

How to use it

1. Go to Appearance → Reset Customizer (or Appearance → Customize).
2. Find the tools at the bottom of the Customizer sidebar:
   • Reset Customizer resets all Customizer settings of the active theme.
   • Export downloads your settings as a JSON file.
   • Import opens a form to upload an export file.

Tip: export your settings before resetting or importing, so you can always go back.

Advanced

By default, the export contains the theme mods, Customizer options of the active theme and Additional CSS. To add other options to the export, use the filter below:

function prefix_customizer_export_option_keys( $option_keys ) {
    $option_keys[] = 'my_plugin_option';
    return $option_keys;
}
add_filter( 'customizer_export_option_keys', 'prefix_customizer_export_option_keys' );
