How to Export and Import Slideshows

It is possible to export slideshows from MetaSlider and import them to a new website.

This first step will show you how to export all the data for your slideshows, including the settings.

Go to “MetaSlider”, then “Settings & Help”, then “Export”.

  • Clicking the “Export” button will export all of your slideshows into a single data file. You can use this file to restore the slideshows on another website.
  • You can use the buttons next to each slideshow to choose which ones to export.
Export MetaSlider

Your exported file will download to your desktop. The file will have a name such as metaslider-export-june-2-local-2022-06-06T19 25 02.556Z.json.

  • On the new site, go to “MetaSlider”, then “Settings & Help”, then “Import”.
  • Click the “Upload file” button.
MetaSlider Import
  • Click the “Import” button.
  • MetaSlider will now give you feedback on your import. If any images are missing, the plugin will give you the details on those missing images.
