Going back and forth from online to desktop. Please!

Point is that after meticulous adjustment of pages to multiple views/devices, one naturally may also want to adjust the blogpost and 404 templates, etc. which to my horror is impossible online (or have I missed something obvious?).

And thus .... back to the desktop version. Yes, I have seen the "the desktop and online applications are two seperate things" argument a few times, but I cannot believe this is the strategy of nicepage. This is showing the finger to costumers: "computer says no, and good luck with starting all over again!". That cannot be true.

Please, built an import/export back and forth from online to desktop. I see a painstaking work-around using ftp, but that's not why I am a happy paying costumer of your product

So, I hope I am completely wrong and have overlooked something. If not, I hope you'll put this on the prio-list

I bought a license to use Nicepage as a WP plugin. Very happy with it indeed! Built a wonderful new responsive base for my website (we have our own domain) and installed the theme online to further work on it.

As far as moving sites between online and desktop, you can export the Project file from one and import into the other.

Thanks MerlinAZ, but it am not clear how. Note that I use the WP plugin, not the "online version (at nice page.com) of the desktop version" ... Does my question make sense, or am I still overlooking the obvious?

To make clearer: I only see an import option, not an export option that I would need to bring my desktop version up-to-date

You can’t import Wordpress files into the desktop app.
Only Project files can be imported.
Support will need to tell you the best workflow for what you are trying to do.
