Descrizione
Scintilla Demo Importer is a one click demo importer for WordPress that turns a fresh installation into a finished website in minutes. Instead of building every page from scratch, you import demo content exactly as you see it on the theme demo, then swap the sample text and images for your own.
The plugin detects the demo package that belongs to your active theme, downloads it from the server, installs the required plugins, and runs the whole import from a single screen with a clear step-by-step progress bar. No FTP, no manual XML uploads, no database work.
What the one click import brings in
- Pages, posts, categories, tags and custom post types
- Media library images, with attachments correctly linked to their content
- Navigation menus, assigned to the right menu locations automatically
- Widgets and sidebar layouts
- Customizer settings, theme options and the front page / blog page setup
- Elementor page builder templates and layouts
- Required and recommended plugins, installed and activated for you
- Contact forms (Fluent Forms) and sliders (Revolution Slider) where the demo uses them

FAQ
-
How do I import demo content?
-
Install and activate a supported theme, activate this plugin, then go to Appearance Demo Importer, choose a demo and click Import. The plugin handles downloads, plugin installation and content import for you.
-
Will importing overwrite my existing content?
-
No. The importer adds demo content alongside what you already have, so nothing is deleted. On a live site we still recommend taking a backup first, and importing on a fresh install for the cleanest result.
-
Why does the import stop halfway?
-
Almost always a server limit. Raise
max_execution_time,memory_limitandupload_max_filesizein PHP, or ask your host to. The plugin shows the failing step so you know where to look, and you can safely run the import again. -
Do I need Elementor?
-
Only if the demo was built with it. Elementor-based demos install and activate Elementor automatically during the import.
-
Can I remove the plugin after importing?
-
Yes. The imported content stays in your site. Deactivate and delete the plugin whenever you are done.
-
Does it work with any theme?
-
It works with any theme that provides a demo configuration through the plugin’s filter. Scintilla themes are supported out of the box.
