Dear Enfold team,
I’ve just bought the last plugin version of the Layerslider (6.7.1).
I did “activated it”. But it did’nt “installed it” and I’m still with my 2016 Layerslider versionHere the issue message I got:
“Install Location: Non-standard Using LayerSlider from a non-standard install location or having a different directory name could lead issues in receiving and installing updates. Commonly, you see this issue when you’re using a theme-included version of LayerSlider. To fix this, please first search for an option to disable/unload the bundled version in your theme, then re-install a fresh copy downloaded from CodeCanyon. Your sliders and settings are stored in the database, re-installing the plugin will not harm them.”In order to install it could you please validate what I am planning to?
– First whithin Enfold and specially my Enfold Child, I must deactivate the bundled version of the layerslider and keep safe my sliders and settings:
Within Enfold Child / Layout Builder / Integrated (Bundled) LayerSlider Plugin, I have 4 choices possibles:
1) Activate bundled plugin (actual choice)
2) Deactivate but leave plugin files in theme folder
3) Remove theme plugin files only and keep slides
4) Remove theme plugin files and slidesI hesitate between option 2 or 3. What’s best?
Thanks for your advice.Otherwise, no problem to install Layerslider as an ordinary plugin.
Best regards.
NoemiPS:
Wordpress version 4.9.7–fr_FR (last)
Enfold version 4.4.1 (last)

You can deactivate or remove the bundled version of LayerSlider under Enfold->Layout Builder.
Best regards,

Thank you for your advice: “You can deactivate or remove the bundled version of LayerSlider under Enfold->Layout Builder”. I do agree.
My concern was: within the “Layout builder” popup which is the best choice in order to keep safe my sliders and settings before installing the standard Layerslider plugin:– Option 2) Deactivate but leave plugin files in theme folder ?
or
– Option 3) Remove theme plugin files only and keep slides ?Obviously, one’s must try to know. But is it risky?
Best regards.

Use option 2 since it just deactivates the bundled plugin but doesn’t remove anything.
Hope this helps :)Best regards,
