Customisations cleared when duplicating theme

[sampwtide]

Hi,

I understand this might be of interest to you @richbrown_staff.

Whenever I duplicate a theme (Impulse from Archetype Themes), the customisations held within Translate & Adapt App are all deleted.

This seems like an unintended outcome, as surely the issue has the potential to create mountains of work for a lot of people when a theme is duplicated?!

Is there a workaround?

Thanks in advance.

Hey Sam, thanks for this. Yes - appreciate the challenge here. Theme translations don't transfer from one theme to another because they relate to the specific theme - and themes can be very different. But I did put together a workaround that we've seen work well, over here: https://community.shopify.com/c/shopify-translate-adapt/translation-missing-after-theme-update/m-p/2... . Let me know any issues, thanks, Rich
