Bricks builder meta doesnt get imported properly

[Odinn-h]

The bricks builder theme uses post_meta to save theme adjustments.

as an example i added some sections and a title bar to a page

if i export it it comes with the _meta, but if you adjust it and then import back again via the cli it reverts to the base state.

A.E. the code below is a direct export from a page "Sample Paige"

if i change the post_title to "Sample Page" it works and imports correctly

if below in meta._bricks_page_content_2[0][2].settings.text i change the content and then import with cli it ignores it completely

p.s. This plugin would be a godsent if it supports any field including meta

@Odinn-h - Try my fork. It works like a charm. Waiting for @robertdevore to review it to merge if he wishes. Notes in pull request.

Here is a working backup that I uploaded as well (while I've tested it extensively between my own prod & local sites, please run it on a duplicate or staging version of your site first or keep a sql dump of your DB just in case): https://github.com/franklyco/db-version-control-main-v2
