How to avoid incorrect classes when copying and pasting sections?

·Jan 16, 2026 01:18 PM·

How to avoid this mess with the classes. I just copy & paste the section, but why do i have all that wrong classes, like: padding-section-large 25, container-large 12 and so on? That means I have to manually change all classes, which can't be the proper way to go!

Jochen S. do you have the class sync turned on using our chrome extension?

There are not many options in the Chrome extension settings… so yes, i always have it like that since I use Relume!

Jochen S. ah what I mean is that we have a chrome extension that has class sync in it to prevent duplicate classes like you have. padding-section-large 25 Here is a doc on the chrome extension: https://www.relume.io/resources/docs/how-to-install-and-use-the-relume-chrome-extension

Jochen S. so specifically, you'll have to clean up ALL duplicate classes in order to avoid any more new ones from happening. This is a massive project though so I suspect at this point, it may not even be worth it. Would likely take 3-4 hours alone. Once there are any duplicate classes, doesn't matter what the class is, the class sync won't work properly and prevent any new ones. Also it looks like this project was started with an older version of our style guide, so you'll want to make sure that you are copying in the right components into the project. Here is a doc that shows you all the places to update your component preferences to match your style guide. In this case, you are running Relume Style Guide v1.5 with Client-First v2.1 - so you'll want to set your preferences to the v1.5 setting. https://www.relume.io/resources/docs/updating-existing-projects#change-your-component-library-preferences
