I have 2 project in local and in one Project create theam and export from 1st project and import in another project but theam not display in backend admin side.

Hello Rajesh,

Please help me to clarify your problem.

1. Does the export (.zip) contain the subfolders and files from the “/plugins/“ and “/themes” folders?
2. Does the import (.zip) create the subfolders and files in the “/plugins/“ and “/themes” folders?
3. Have you logged out and logged back in to trigger plugin registration after importing?
4. Have you activated the new theme?

Thank you

Hi Weigo, I am having the same issue as Rajesh.

I installed EXPORT and IMPORT plugins on two OctoberCMS sites. On the first site, I exported my custom plugins and theme to zip using the EXPORT plugin. On the second site I imported the same files using the IMPORT plugin.

When I import the plugins, the screen loads and refreshes, but there are no visible messages, the plugins do not get installed, and there are no event logs.

When I import the theme, after the page refreshes I receive a red error banner stating "Error Extracting Archive".

The import plugin does not appear to work. Though, the EXPORT plugin does seem to work.

Thoughts?

Hello Jeff,

I will get back to you on this issue tomorrow!

To produce the error "Error Extracting Archive" when importing your theme:

1. You are inside the if code block at line 129 of briddle/import/controllers/Upload.php
2. The plugin then attempts to move the uploaded archive to the folder themes/
3. The plugin then tries to open the zip file inside themes/ to extract it but fails, producing this error

So either the zip archive was written to the folder themes/ (you should see it there) and there is a problem opening it or the zip archive was never written to the folder themes/.

Can you confirm your zip archive is placed in the folder themes/? (Do the same for plugins.)

Thank you!
