How To Install Krafter 2.2
Please watch this video.
Does this work if Sitekrafter Pro is installed? I am having trouble importing the json file, or once it is imported, when I create a new page, I don't get the option to build the new page by importing a layout. What am I missing?

Yes it will work together because Sitekrafter Pro is class based and Krafter is presets based to different tools.
When you have imported Krafter 2.2.json file with import preset checked to Divi library.
Then when you make new page name it then click on the Divibuider when page loaded click on the + in left corner and choose from library there you will find the krafter.json file click on it and install all is set.
Set the primary and secondary color in variable manager then the text and heading text family.
In the new page you made now test with paragraph and heading if presets works.
I hope this can help you on the way.

Mak If we already had installed a previous version of Krafter and pilled in the presets, but then started making changes to the presets on our website, when we upgrade Krafter to 2.2 or above and import the presets with the new version, what will happen to the presets we have changed while working on the website, prior to the upgrade? Will we have lost “our” presets that were customized by us? Can you fully explain how this works? Thanks. Gary Gordon
Hello Gary,
That was my tought too if we lose our own handmade designs presets when we upgrade the Krafter.
I think we can save our designs to Divi library then after upgrade we have to install on test page and save the presets again on top of Krafter 2.2.
Does this make sense do you think ?
Best regards

I have custom layouts/section/modules that were built with the last ver of Krafter and they look fine in 2.2 - of course they were saved w/unique names . . .
Mak Robert J David Halterman Thanks guys. I just would appreciate it if Mak could answer back with exactly how things work in this regard. And maybe he could provide a video tutorial, if it's needed, showing us exactly what we need to do in order to do things correctly and not lose things from one update to another, especially since he is working very hard to continuously improve Krafter. which seems like every week there's a new version. I hope Mak can fully explain this. But I very much appreciate all of your input.
Clean install of Divi 5, sitekrafter pro, both up to date. Imported the krafter.json file to the divi library. Followed the video, step-by-step, however when I select the krafter 2.2 page, and use this layout, I get the message in the image below.
I have disabled all wp plugins on this new site, disabled privacy badger, and I'm still not finding what is stopping the page from populating the expected krafter global presets.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated - I'm on a tight timeline.
UPDATE:
In case anyone else is running into this issue, I found a solution that worked for me (using my Macbook Pro). Check to ensure your browser is up to date (Chrome just released a new version). Check your server php settings and ensure they are correct. When Divi 5 is up to date, activate it as the theme (even if you have sitekrafter pro childtheme installed). Upload the Krafter 2.2 into the Divi Library, then follow the steps in Mak's video. After the page loads, you can activate the SiteKrafter Pro childtheme, and it will work together. Not sure if this was just a bug on my end, but if this helps anyone else, it was worth the frustration on my part.
Hello there Dana and all members.
In this topic i find and use self this metod and it worked to me.
Deep Clean (For All Presets)
- Install and activate a Child Theme for safety.
- Go to Appearance > Theme File Editor (or Code Editor in Divi 5).
- Select the
functions.phpfile. - Add the following code to the end of the file and visit your site with
?delete_global_presets=1in the URL (e.g., yoursite.com?delete_global_presets=1) to run it.
php
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', function() {
if ( isset( $_GET['delete_global_presets'] ) ) {
delete_option( 'et_divi_builder_global_presets_history_ng' ); // delete presets history
die( 'Global Presets Deleted!' );
}
});
