A plugin that lets you export and import your WordPress menus in our own website under Appearance section to Export/Import Menus.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

    Wish I would have tried this one first; I’ve tried two others (WPS didn’t work at all)… Worked great! The only upgrades I’d want; one has already been mentioned in other reviews: search/replace domain (though can just use Better Search Replace) EDIT: it appears that it does match the domain of the destination site! Bulk import/export Replace existing menus This topic was modified 1 year ago by ryansigg.

    Worked as described. Would be 5 stars if it provided functionality to rename domain (i.e. change staging.domain.com to domain.com) but simply doing a replace all inside json export file then importing worked flawlessly.
