We’re actually in the process of moving a large chunk of our sites to Headway, so there’s a very good chance we’ll have a similar plugin for it in the very near future.

Bravo guys, this plugin is an exceptional solution to such a hardworking community of designers who are tired of writing instructions and providing additional training which is nulled with the use of this fantastic plugin. Grand work, maybe you guys should be the first to go around and make this plugin for all the other up and coming themes such as headway etc

I’m not sure the use of $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] is working quite right, or quite as expected in certain situations. I just tried to use this with Thesis 1.6 and WPMU 2.8.6 where WPMU is in a directory and the blogs are in subdirectories (because subdomains with MAMP is a pain). So, an admin URL is something like http://mytestsite.tld/main-wpmu-directory/blog-directory/wp-admin. I tried to download an export file and get redirected to http://mytestsite.tld/main-wpmu-directory/blog-directory/wp-admin/?c=1 without downloading anything. However, if I hover over the download link it says that the URL is http://mytestsite.tld/main-wpmu-directory/wp-admin/themes.php?page=thesis-export.php&dld=downloadoptions So, it’s missing the blog directory of the blog I’m currently editing. If I add that in the to URL manually in the address bar I get the download file okay.

Perhaps a better variable would be /wp-admin/?page= etc. To get the URL of the current WordPress install.

If you are going to re-create the pages on the live site, you would probably be better off doing a content export/import first and then move the Thesis settings. That way the pages already exist before the nav settings are imported.

Thank you sooooo much for this. One question though if you don’t mind:

Do you advise deselecting the pages we’ve selected to show in the nav menu before exporting, since most likely the site imported to won’t yet have any pages built yet? I’ve noticed the plugin is keeping the pages in nav settings even tho those pages don’t exist. And then it’s a mess when I do actually create those pages.

Thanks.

This is brilliant thanks. Only wish I found it last week before I built 28 sites! -or at least my VA built 28 sites.

Does the Thesis theme need to be active on the live site or can it just be installed and ready to go and still be able to import without being the active theme? Same question for plugin. thanks.
