After diligently making a theme settings backup prior to upgrading to Specular 1.8, I can’t see how I now restore my original theme settings form this backup.
The theme settings export created a txt file 239KB that appears to be filled with hex code. The Backups Import dropdown doesn’t include this file or provide an obvious way of importing the theme settings backup file I made.
I also made a copy of the original theme folder, but I understand that the settings file preserves themes settings from the MySQL database
If you have exported the site’s settings and data with the export option in General Options > Import/Export (Dummy Data). The file generated is stored in includes\dummy_data\backups folder. It should also display in the drop down.
If it doesn’t then install WP Import plugin and import the file you have from it.
Let us know.
