The following message just appeared in my dashboard when I was in the LayerSlider panel. Are my layer sliders going to stop working without notice? I’m using Enfold 2.8.1.
phpQuery, an external library in LayerSlider, have unmet dependencies. It requires PHP5 with the following extensions installed: PHP DOM extension, PHP Multibyte String extension. Please contact with your hosting provider to resolve these dependencies, as it will likely break LayerSlider to function properly. This issue could result a blank page in slider builder.
Hey ihf-eramstad!
You would need to contact your hosting provider and ask that those extensions be installed if you want to use LayerSlider without issue.
Best regards,
Devin
I got this warning message as well and called my hosting provider.
They verified they are running PHP5 and have the extensions installed.
I still get the warning message…any ideas?
Hi!
Create a phpinfo.php file on your install with this content:
<?php
phpinfo();
Once you done the access it via browser and look for the DOM and mbstring sections, if these aren’t present then they are not enabled.
Cheers!

I’ve heard of a workaround essentially “detaching” LayerSlider from Enfold and then rendering via shortcodes.
I’m open to that or any other solutions.
Hey!
Did the layer slider stop working? You need to buy your own layer slider plugin then add this on functions.php to disable the default layer slider:
add_theme_support('deactivate_layerslider');

It worked on one server: Godaddy, where developed it.
When I moved it to the new server, it didn’t work.
Thanks for the tip, and the good service.

See if you can compare the current server setup with the old server. PHP version, memory allowed etc.
