I just started using Bulk Settings, and went through the videos and support topics, but I still have questions.
- When importing a key for WP Settings - General, it brought in every field, like site title, tagline, etc. I left them blank, and it blanked them out on my child sites… which I understand now is probably expected behaviour (good thing I tested on a few sites first). So, I’m curious, when importing a new key, can I delete everything except the fields I want to change… or do I need to leave the top few? For example, see the image below. Can I remove everything in red or is the required for the key to work?

Every time I’ve tried on the Settings - General page, it will create two fields for Date and Time. The first one is correct, then the second one sets the same thing as Date/Time Custom. So it then runs and sets the proper setting then immediately overwrites it and sets date/time to custom with a blank field. Is this a bug? Either way, I have figured out how to just delete the second (bad) entry from my Key.

How do I only get the fields I want to change instead of grabbing everything on a page?
-
Also, it seems I have to make changes to my MainWP WP site settings to grab the key… and then change them back to how I prefer to have them on my MainWP site (different than the child sites). Is there a Key Builder for basic WP settings where I could just select the fields and options I want to change and then import them to my key ring, instead of affecting my MainWP site settings?

Almost forgot, when saving the key to my child sites, on each of them I get a warning… “Generic fail message: The email address entered did not appear to be a valid email address. Please enter a valid email address.” I am not editing this field, and when I go to my child sites, the proper email addresses are there and unchanged, so it’s weird that I’m getting this message.

While I’m asking questions, is there an undo option or a way to recover the fields that were changed by this? On the two child sites I tested, it blanked out my Site Name and Tagline. I don’t remember exactly what I had in the tagline option, but luckily that is not that big of a deal right now… but it could be when I start making larger changes later.
