FIXED - Confirm file overwrite message appears on wordpress theme export

Beginners

Hi PG crew :slightly_smiling_face: having a problem exporting WordPress theme whilst following a tute by Bob here (agency bootstrap HTML template conversion to WP): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMAmWxvewmE&list=PLNHKFtMjaNvFWJN5dNV72ug7mpvH8zKd1&index=5.

Have attached a gif of the message. I have also done a short YT vid (3mins) here showing in more detail (not sure if I’m allowed to link to a YT vid or not?): https://youtu.be/RUV6UMRq-6Y

I’m new to the WP stuff and I’m sure it’s probably my settings. Have done quite a few tutes and read the docs up and down but seem to belting my head against the wall on this one - am sure it’s something simple :upside_down_face: - anyway if anyone could point me in the right direction or give me a clue that would be much appreciated. Thanks and have a good weekend! Cheers, Mark.

I see 1 main issue here:

It seems you are saving your project in the theme export folder which is wrong. You must have a project folder (for the HTML/CSS created with Pinegrow), and the WordPress theme folder where you export the WordPress theme. (see a quick demo here Start your first WordPress theme development in less than 12 minutes | Pinegrow Web Editor)
