    I have have tried duplicating a slider, creating a new name for it. I would like to use it as a base for my next slider. However, I cannot find how to save it as a new slider with a new short code. How do I save and get a new shortcode.

    Hello brentswain,

    Thank you for getting in touch with us. My name is Attila and I'm happy to assist you today. I appreciate your patience while we've been working towards your ticket.

    You can duplicate a slider in the sliders list, by clicking on the small arrow icon on the chosen slider and selecting Duplicate. This will double it and give the second a new ID and shortcode.

    It doesn't. I duplicate, even give a new name, but it stills keeps the same shortcode

    That's not possible. If you duplicate a slider, the new one's name will have 'copy' in it, and its ID will be one higher. So for example the shortcode  [layerslider id="472"] into [layerslider id="473"] and the name "XY" into "XY copy". Are you sure you're doing it the correct way ? You will need to make this in the sliders list, not inside the slider.

    I've already specified where you can duplicate the slider in the previous message. Regardless, thank you for the feedback, glad you could solve the problem. If you need further assistance please let us know.
