Same settings for different accounts (lemm.ee)

I have customized a lot of the settings on my main account and want to have the same settings on my other accounts, but it's a pain to do it manually for each one. Can you copy all settings from one account to another account? Or at least set global settings for all accounts? I'm not seeing any options for it. I understand it's still in beta so maybe it's coming at some point, but if anyone knows a way to do it at the moment I'd really appreciate it.

Have you tried using the backup feature to import settings from one account to the other?

Yeah, that worked. I misunderstood how it worked. I thought it would restore the individual settings for all the accounts. All sorted.

Jup, export and import settings work fine.

It would be handy if you could save your current settings as the default settings though. It would save the need to export/import settings every time for people that have multiple accounts

That would be a nice option to have as well.

Oh, I see. Yeah, doing it that way works. Thank you. I thought it would restore the individual settings back to the different accounts so I misunderstood how it works. My bad.
