Hello guys,
I just updated to the latest version, and I can see in the changelogs that the latest version of Revolution Slider is included. (Ref: https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-changelog/ – misc: Updated Revolution slider to the latest version (7.0.11);)
But when I check my plugins page, it says I am running the version of 6.7.41, and there is a new update for Revolution Slider (6.7.54) which is another version of the mentioned 7.0.11?
So how do I update to latest version of this? When I download from Themeforest, I dont have the “Newspaper-tf\plugins\revolution_slider_5” folder, in the downloaded folder, even though I download the complete install package.
Can you please help me from here? 🙂
Hi Paniki2300,
The Revolution Slider is currently showing the immediately next available plugin version rather than the latest one. This is expected behavior, which is why the version displayed may not match the most recent release.
To properly update the plugin, please follow these steps:
1. Connect to the theme account and download the full package
2. Unzip the downloaded package
3. Inside the extracted files, locate the plugins folder
4. Find the revolution_slider folder, which contains the plugin files
5. Use the zip inside this folder to install or update the plugin manually following the standard update procedure: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-install-revolution-slider-v5/
Thank you!
Hello Calin,
Thanks for your response!
For some reason, when I asked this last time, the folder I downloaded keeps not being the full amouth of content inside the folder, so the revolution_slider was not there.
Today, I followed your guide once again, and now its there and the plugin is updated.
Thanks 🙂
Hi,
The revolution slider should always be inside the full theme package, we always include it. I checked the last theme update and the latest one, the slider was -> https://prnt.sc/oawqL1RqPpw6 and is -> https://prnt.sc/gHApncxd4kn8 in the plugins folder. It’s unusual if you checked and it wasn’t there.
Thank you!
Yea, no worries – its there now 🙂
Hello again,
When will the Revolution Slider get updated in the Themeforest download pack? There has been an update since 22th june, and when I download the latest pack from Themeforest, the version is still not the updated one.
🙂
Hi,
We include the latest version for the Revolution slider when the theme is updated. So when a new theme update is released, we add the latest revolution slider in the package.
I can however provide the revolution slider ahead of time if you require it. Please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and include a link to this topic in the email. I will provide the latest version.
Thank you!
