Hi, taking over a website that was created for a client. It was running LayerSlider 5 which is coming up flagged as having vulnerabilities, so I just purchased the latest version and need to update it. Can you tell me the easiest way? Simply FTP the files and replace the existing? Or are there any changes I need to know about before updating?
There are multiple methods available, you can either use the built-in auto-update solution of the plugin to update, or you can manually reinstall it with the package that you download from CodeCanyon. The FTP method is also possible.

Hey Jeanette,

Every method is described step by step in the documentation, please refer to the following URL: https://support.kreaturamedia.com/docs/layersliderwp/documentation.html#plugin-setup
Thanks for the quick reply! There was no auto-update on the plugin, but I updated manually and it's all good now.
Thanks again for your help,
Jeanette
