(Or simply create a backup as this will break your clones)

Create a copy of your Inkscape file so that you don't mess with your current file.

Selecting this option will result in larger file sizes, so I recommend using the following method instead if you can:

Using clones - select this option if you are using clones in your document, otherwise only the original object will appear in the exported files.

Choose the export plain SVG option to remove any Inkscape-specific SVG attributes/properties.

This option is turned off by default to make sure you don't lose any files by mistake. If you don't want this behaviour you can turn on the Overwrite existing files option.

If in the export path there are any other files with the same name as one of the exported files, the extension will not overwrite that file, therefore not exporting that particular layer(s).

This way you can have other testing or mockup layers in your file and still be able to export all the others.

If you have any layers that you don't want to be exported, just hide them in the layer panel of Inkscape and then turn on the Skip hidden layers option.

You also need to name these layers with a fixed tag at the beginning.

Check the Use background layers options if you want to have one or more layers that will appear in all exports.

Use parent layers as background layers - the export file will contain the objects from the parent layers as well.

Export each layer as a single layer - the export file will contain only the objects from this layer.

Choose a layer export mode (this feature is independent from the Use background layers):.

If you don't see the AppData folder, you need to set the windows explorer to show hidden files.
