Deze plugin **is niet getest met de laatste 3 grotere versies van WordPress**. Mogelijk
wordt het niet meer onderhouden of ondersteund. Ook kunnen er compatibiliteitsproblemen
ontstaan wanneer het wordt gebruikt met recentere versies van WordPress.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin export menu item links as well?

has compatible theme locations.

### Will this plugin overwrite existing menus?

Be aware that after import you have to eventually asign it in the WordPress backend
under Design > Menus to your current menu. When exporting on one domain and importing
on another domain you have to search and replace the domains (i use the plugin “
Better Search Replace” for this).

The exported file is .json, but the content is: “Warning: Attempt to read property“
term_id” on false in /…” and “Warning: Attempt to read property “name” on false 
in /…”
