# Using Export/Import plugin causing formatting issues

 * Hello:
 * I have noticed that using this plugin, to export templates for Elementor, is 
   causing formatting to be inconsistent. The templates appear fine in the back-
   end when creating/editing them but after importing them to a test site (using
   your Template Kit Import plugin) the front end of the template (that visitors
   view) has formatting that is either broken or missing.
 * I am running/testing this on a clean staging site that is only running Elementor(
   3.1.0), Elementor Pro (3.0.10) and the Template Kit Export (1.0.18). I use the
   Page Builder theme, no customization at all or special CSS code.
 * Honestly I am not sure whether the problem is with the Template Kit Export plugin
   or the Template kit Import plugin (1.0.10) that I use to import for testing purposes.
   Ultimately all I know is that the templates are fine when creating them, but 
   after exporting and importing them into a fresh site (using both your plugins)
   something ends up breaking. If I export the templates individually (then bring
   them into a new site separately, not using your plugin) they retain their formatting.
 * Thanks in advance.
 * **This is no longer an issue. I did some more digging and the problem might be
   related to something else. I am marking this as resolved unless something chnages.
   Thanks.**
