With your preferred FTP client software (FileZilla, Cyberduck, etc) connect to the remote server where your WordPress website is hosted.
After you are connected to your remote server, navigate down to the /wp-content/plugin/ directory of WordPress website, where you can find cubeportfolio plugin installed.

Then, select the folder named cubeportfolio downloaded from codecanyon that is still on your PC and put it on /wp-content/plugin/ directory.

Import/Export feature is useful when you want to transfer a grid from one wordpress site to another. The export will generate a .json file with
Cube Portfolio grids and settings from database. At import you must provide a .json file from a previous export.
Note When you import a file it's always best to make sure that you have the same version number on both sites.
Please update the plugin on both sites before doing an export -> import.
