You’ll see a list of installed plugins, and Thrive features on this page. Under Thrive Features, scroll down to Design Packs.
Exporting Thrive Theme Builder Themes Using the Design Pack
Before we begin, please ensure you’ve created a theme you want to export and reuse on another website.
To start the export procedure, open the WordPress admin area, navigate to Thrive Dashboard >> Thrive Dashboard, scroll down to Design Packs, and click the Manage Design Packs button.
Choosing to manage the Design Packs will open a page where you’ll find two tabs viz. Export and Import. Since you’d like to export a theme, open the Export tab.
The next thing you select under the Export tab is Thrive Theme Builder Themes.
In the popup, select the theme or themes you want to export. You can also choose to export all the themes by selecting all or search for a particular theme using the search bar.
After selecting a theme or themes you want to export, click on the Save and close button.
Saving and closing the popup will take you back to the Design Pack page. This is where you can click on the Export Content button.
When you click the Export Content button, downloading the theme as a .zip file will take a few seconds.
Note: Sometimes, this file may unzip as you download it and instead appear as a regular folder. However, the folder must be zipped to use the WordPress plugin uploader.

Once the file is downloaded, you’ll see a confirmation popup. This popup will also have a link to download the file again if it did not work for you the first time. You can then click on the Done button to close the popup.
