How to update to 5.0+ via FTP

How to update the plugin via ftp if the update isn't showing up in your WP dashboard.
For cases when the auto-update takes up to 24 hours to become officially available, or if the plugin was packaged with your theme.

  • IMPORTANT!
    Never uninstall/reinstall the plugin from the WP Admin! ..as that would also delete your previously built sliders. Instead, as long as the following instructions are followed, any previously built sliders will be saved and still exist once the update process is complete.

1. Download the latest version of Slider Revolution

1.1 If you purchased the plugin individually from CodeCanyon, click here to download 5.0+ from your CodeCanyon downloads page.

1.2 If the plugin was packaged with your theme:

If your theme has been updated and includes 5.0+, you can download a fresh copy of your theme and the new version of the plugin will be inside this download.  Otherwise, you can contact your theme’s author to obtain a copy of 5.0+.

2. Replace the plugin files via FTP

Next, delete the folders/files located inside the following directory:

wp-content/plugins/revslider/

And then replace them with the folders/files located inside the “revslider” folder that can be found inside the zip file you downloaded from CodeCanyon.

3. Finally, reload the plugin's main admin page, the "Installed Version" should now match the "Latest Available Version"
