Synchronizing dev environments

Open on Drupal.org →

Problem/Motivation

Changes made to the design of a page don't get exported as config, so it's awkward to keep different development environments in sync.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a new Drupal 10 site using Composer, with DXPR Builder installed.
2. Create a home page.
3. Use DXPR Builder to design a footer on the home page.
4. Export Drupal config and commit it to a Git remote along with all composer.json and all other essential files.
5. On another machine, clone the remote repo and use composer to install Drupal and the DXPR theme and Builder.

The edits to the footer do not appear on the home page in the second environment.

Is there a way to use version control on blocks and page layout that have been defined using DXPR Builder?

Or any other way to synchronize dev environments?

    Hi @nathaniel_pw

    DXPR Builder allows you to create and edit rich content through the UI. In Drupal, the content is not exportable as part of configuration management. This is because Drupal's configuration export system is designed to handle site settings and structure (like content types and views), but not the actual content itself.

    If you need to export content, these modules could be a good candidate to use - Single Content Sync → , → , etc.
