Your post doesn’t contain any information, what problems are you having with the LayerSlider?
Thanks,
RikardApril 6, 2016 at 11:18 am #608827Hi, I actually have the same request. There is a new version of WP LayerSlider, and we cannot access it as it comes with the theme (auto update is only available had we had purchased the plugin separately)! Could you please address this security issue?
Many thanks
Fiorilla
April 7, 2016 at 5:10 am #609307Hi @Fiorilla,
We are only allowed to include the plugin within the theme, not as a standalone plugin. If you want the latest version available to you immediately you would have to purchase it separately. I’m not sure how it’s a security issue though, would you care to elaborate on that please?
Thanks,
RikardApril 8, 2016 at 5:47 pm #610347Hi Rikard,
Well, wordpress sites are regularly hacked because outdated plugins sometimes reveal a possibility to install backdoors. I remember in 2014, about 100 000 sites were affected because their owners did not update the “Slider Revolution”. And we are currently having some troubles of the same sort on our website, so our developer is very careful about this sort of things.
If it comes with the theme, I would assume that it would always carry the latest version?
Thanks for your reply,
Fiorilla

We are testing the latest versions of LayerSlider with Enfold and including them in Enfold updates. If there happens to be a security related update in LayerSlider, we will most definitely update the version we include in Enfold as well.
Best regards,
YigitApril 14, 2016 at 2:06 pm #613888Hi,
I’ve just installed the latest version of Enfold, but the latest version of LayerSlider seems to not be included. How do I fix that?
April 16, 2016 at 5:46 am #615315Hi,
I answered that question here. If you want to always have the latest version you would have to use the stand-alone version.

RikardApril 20, 2016 at 8:53 am #618070Hej igen Rikard!
Antar att du är en hejare på svenska. Kan du förklara för mig. Är det alltså en gammal version av LayerSlider i senaste versionen av Enfold? Om om jag förstår dig rätt, så måste jag även köpa licens för LayerSlider för att kunna uppdatera?
Vänligen, Patrik
April 22, 2016 at 5:06 am #619482Hej Patrik,
Nja, den är väl inte gammal direkt men när utvecklingen av temat sker så tar vi den version som är stabil då, sen kommer nya versioner ut av slidern under tiden som vi utvecklar nästa version, och då ser den versionen som finns i temat “gammal” ut. Fast detta är inget du behöver bry dig om helt ärligt, versionen som kommer med temat är ingen säkerhetsrisk och den fungerar som den ska. Om du verkligen måste ha den senaste versionen av slidern så ja, då får du köpa slidern separat. Men jag ser ingen poäng i att göra det helt ärligt :-)
Mvh,

Tack för informationen. Mvh, Patrik
April 27, 2016 at 1:56 pm #623057v5.6.5 is shipped with enfold
v5.6.6 is from April, 21.
From changelog:
Our sites and services now utilize SSL, providing LayerSlider updates and other assets over a secure connection
Various fixes for HTTPS sites
Further security updatesApril 28, 2016 at 4:04 pm #623851Rikard, you commented that “If you want the latest version available to you immediately you would have to purchase it separately”.
Does this mean that uypdates to Layer Slider ARE INCLUDED in Kriese theme updates, but the updates do not include the latest version?
Or, does this mean taht updates to Layer Silder are NOT INCLUDED in Kriese theme updates?
Thanks for the clarification.
April 29, 2016 at 6:47 pm #624704Hi sackerly,
The latest version of Layerslider will of course be included with Enfold, but depending on our own development cycle it may take anywhere from a day to a few weeks until we release the new layerslider version with a theme update. (Assuming that its not a super critical update, we will of course always try to immediately update the slider if there are major security fixes included or if a previous version is broken in a major way)
As I have been told the version 5.6.6 offers a few minor bug fixes and some non critical security updates, so we will probably release it with the next major theme update.
What Rikard meant was that if you always want to run the latest version “immediately” you would need to get a license on codecanyon :)
Best regards,
