I've had 164 menu items with deep nested links. I'm very greatfull and happy.

The only Menu Exporter/Importer that actually works!

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

Time saver

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.

Didn't tried other things.

Very useful

Does what it promised to do, using Astra theme with WordPress 6.6.1.

Simple but effective!

Worked like a dream. Install. Export. Import. Done! When you have an extensive multi-tiered menu this is a godsend & timesaver when porting to a new framework structure.

Works great

Works great on my simple Astra/Elementor sites.
