I have tried to import the demo sliders. When I click import, the Enfold slideshows don’t show up. Let me make sure that I am doing it right. Where do I find the demo sliders to import?

What I did was I went to the enfold folder, found the sample slider text document and copied all the gibberish that was there. I pasted it into the import sliders input, but like I said, nothing happened.

Sorry, but what “data” is lost? If it isn’t in the code- where is it? What are you so sure is gone?

Best,
DBD

Could you check my code? Could the problem be there? config-layerslider/config.php

I have already done all of this.

In the portfolio grid menu:

I have selected several portfolio categories and subcategories, all of which have pictures associated with them. (Maybe I need more pictures? I don’t know.)

4 columns, 9 post header, Title and Excerpt, and Sortable IS checked to yes.

Still, all I get is “All”.

Any ideas?
