GuestMy parent theme has tons of settings in the Customizer and now I need to make a child version to use some custom template files, anyone know how to export/import all theme settings without losing all your work on the child theme?

Theme mod settings are stored as a single database entry in the options table.
For example, If I look in my
wp_optionstable in a localhost install, and find the key oftheme_mods_twentythirteen, then this is the content of it:a:3:{s:16:"header_textcolor";s:6:"220e10";s:12:"header_image";s:84:"http://localhost/wptrunk/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen/images/headers/diamond.png";s:17:"header_image_data";a:3:{s:3:"url";s:84:"http://localhost/wptrunk/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen/images/headers/diamond.png";s:13:"thumbnail_url";s:94:"http://localhost/wptrunk/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen/images/headers/diamond-thumbnail.png";s:11:"description";s:7:"Diamond";}}That’s just saving the header image and colors and such for the twentythirteen theme. Copy that to another install and you copied all the theme mod settings for that theme.
