This feature is definitely going to make it into 1.4 since it is a very popular one. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/exportimport-form-settings#post-3004 Thu, 28 Jan 2010 13:16:46 +0000 Alex Cancado 3004@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>sxmungall,<br /> Since your target blog does not have any forms, you can just import the two main form tables from one blog to the other.</p> <p>You can login to phpMyAdmin on the source blog and export (to SQL) the tables wp_rg_form and wp_rg_form_meta.</p> <p>Then import those tables into the target blog. </p>
