Import, export and backup

All of these work on the current shop and include images, scenes and styles. Files are JSON (import and restore also accept ZIP).

Duplicate a project#

Duplicate in the projects list creates a copy with a new slug and (Copy) after the name, including all scenes. The copy shares the original's image files instead of uploading them again; an image is removed only when no project uses it any more, so deleting one copy never breaks the other.

Export and import#

• Export on a project row downloads that project.
• Export All downloads every project of the shop.
• Import creates projects from such a file — from this shop, another shop or another PrestaShop installation.

Images travel inside the file. When an imported slug already exists, a number is added (living-room-1). A scene whose image is missing in the file is skipped.

Use export and import to move a map from a staging shop to the live shop.

Backup and restore#

• Backup All saves every project of the shop with its images and scenes.
• Restore replaces all projects of the shop with the contents of a backup file.

Warning

Restore first deletes every existing project of the current shop. Restored projects get new IDs, so update any theme code that uses id= rather than the slug.

Back up before larger changes, and before uninstalling the module.

Demo content#

On a shop without maps, the projects list offers to load the demo maps. See Installation.
