Overview

About this plugin

Template Porter for Elementor is a powerful tool that solves the common problem of broken images when exporting and importing Elementor templates. Unlike the default Elementor export/import feature, this plugin automatically bundles all images with your template.

  • Complete Template Export – Exports Elementor templates with ALL images bundled into a single ZIP file
  • Automatic Image Import – Imports images directly into your Media Library
  • Smart ID Mapping – Automatically updates template JSON with new attachment IDs
  • Zero Manual Work – No need to manually reselect images in the Elementor editor
  • Preserve Everything – Maintains all template settings, page settings, and metadata
  • User-Friendly Interface – Simple admin interface for easy export and import
