Art Vandelay 2.0.0a
===================

[](#art-vandelay-200a)

Art Vandelay allows you to import and export fields and section and tabs to and from a [Craft](http://buildwithcraft.com) site.

\#What's in version 2?

This is the alpha release of version 2.

In version 2 we upgraded the interface so it is no longer a single page. There are now 3 types of export you can do:

1. Export Field Groups - export an entire group of fields
2. Export Section - note version 2 automatically exports the fields that belong to a section.
3. Export a Tab - You can export a single entry Type tab, the fields that belong to that tab are also exported.

The import now has a couple of steps:

1. Paste your export file into the textbox
2. You are presented with a report page indicating what the import will do and potential issues. eg. if a field type has changed.
3. For tab imports you can select which entry types you want to add the tab to
