# How to Use Copy to Clipboard in UiChemy?

Export a specific section of your Figma design directly into WordPress using UiChemy's Copy to Clipboard.


**Copy to Clipboard** lets you export a specific section from your Figma design directly into WordPress, without installing any third-party plugin, just a simple copy-and-paste workflow.

### Why Use Copy to Clipboard?

- **Faster transfers**, instantly copy design sections into your preferred WordPress editor
- **Great for specific sections**, ideal for importing individual sections like headers, hero areas, or feature blocks with clean, accurate output
- **Plugin-free**, no third-party plugin installation required
- **Quick previews**, test sections in real time before committing to a full export

<Callout kind="warning">
Copying an entire Main Frame can cause alignment or width issues in WordPress. Copy to Clipboard works best for individual sections or inner layouts, avoid copying the entire design unless you're comfortable making manual layout adjustments afterward.

<Callout kind="tip">
Make sure your Figma design is optimized for UiChemy before using Copy to Clipboard, for the best results.
