How to reset Make to default settings?

Hi there!

There isn’t a way to revert to previous settings once you’ve changed them, unfortunately. We do have those default styles together in a Style Kit on Make Plus, but that’s not a feature of Make.

So sorry if that wasn’t the answer you were looking for.

Ahh, gotcha. Was hoping I didn’t have to dive into the db.

If anyone else is looking for how to do it –

– Make a backup of your site and database.
– Test your backup. Test it again. (Eg, Install it as a local version)
– Open up PhpMyAdmin. Show all the rows. If this means nothing do some research to see if it’s something you want to dive into – you can really mess up the works here.
– Go to the wp_options table
– Under option_name column, find theme_mods_make
– Delete that entire row
– Go back to your WP admin panel under themes and refresh it. There may be a notice at the bottom mentioning Make is not installed properly. Hit “Delete.”
– Now reinstall Make, you should be back up and running as a fresh install.

Thanks for letting us know your work-around!

And thank you for marking this resolved. ?? If you have any other questions about Make, please let us know.

Hi jimbeard36 !
Thank you for your method to reset MAKE.
I wonder if I could use your idea to duplicate my settings from one site to another one, both having MAKE as a theme. Problem : I do not know how to copy a row of a db into another db. Could you please explain how to do it ? Thanks a lot

I haven’t tried this, (and this should probably be a new thread), but this is what I should try. You definitely should do this on a local version first to make sure it works:

– Following some of the directions above using phpmyadmin, find that row in the theme you want to duplicate in the wp_options table. Click on the option_value column in the theme_mods_make row, copy everything there. Should look something like a:2:{i:…

– Install Make on your new site.

– Change one thing, doesn’t matter what (text / background color, whatever).

– Go into phpmyadmin for that new site, again, find the theme_mods_make row in the wp_options table. Click on the option_value column for that row, delete everything that’s there and paste in what you copied from your original table.

That should do it! Basically you’re not copying one table row to another, but just replacing the values in the option_value column with the ones you want to copy over.

Thank you for your answer jimbeard36 !
I did not try your method ( I did not dare ) but I found a plugin that did the same thing for me : Customizer Export/Import
