The plugin allows pushing and pulling of handle headers and content to projects from within WordPress 5.5 or higher and the WordPress Block Editor. The plugin can be used with Polylang and WPML but not Multilingual Press. The plugin provides a warning and confirmation if source content has been changed since the last pull.

The plugin supports localizing posts and pages (post types built in WordPress) but does not support custom post types.

Do not alter HTML tags in imported content as it may cause issues when pulled back into WordPress.
