In the Layouts editor #

1. If the import only made drafts (no --publish), Discard them in the editor.

On the command line #

1. ./console exp:layouts import before-import.zip --dry-run --strategy=overwrite --publish and read the States (new, identical, changed, conflicting).
2. Run it again without --dry-run, with the --strategy you chose and --publish if the result should be live at once.
3. Nothing to clear by hand: since explayouts_core 1.0.10 an import with --publish purges the page cache itself.

Which to choose #

Always export before importing.

Check #

• The layout is as before the import.
