    Hello,

    I’m starting on a new site: http://ahddesigns.com/ – However it’s in “Coming Soon” mode so you cannot see it.

    I have other sites using LayerSlider 5.1.1 (Enfold Version 2.7) and it works. Also I tried this method that came from another post: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/since-the-update-layer-slider-cannot-be-edited-at-all/

    Please try to install LayerSlider as a standalone plugin. Copy the folder enfold\config-layerslider\LayerSlider into the plugins directory (wp-content/plugins) and switch to another theme (i.e. TwentyThirteen). Then go to Plugins > All Plugins, activate LayerSlider and then re-activate the Enfold theme. Afterwards check if you can save the slideshow properly.

    I activated the TwentyThirteen WP theme and was able to user LayerSlider (although was quite messy due to not working within your theme) but when I activated your theme again I still could not do anything – import, adding a new slide, etc.

    I have also tried to remove the entire theme & upload it again via FTP – it still hasn’t worked.

    Is this a permission issue? If so, what permissions do I need to set? If not, what else can I do?

    Thanks,
    Brian

    Hey Brian!

    Thank you for visiting the support forum!

    You need to deactivate the default layer slider first. Please add this on functions.php if you want to use the layer slider as a stand alone plugin. This will disable the default layer slider that is included within the theme, find this code on line 16:

    if(isset($avia_config['use_child_theme_functions_only'])) return;
    

    Add this code below:

    add_theme_support( 'deactivate_layerslider' );
    

    Once the default layer slider is disabled, please install the plugin. Let us know if it works.

    Cheers!
    Ismael
