Patch notes: Slider Plugin removed

[thosch71]

Hi guys,

I have a question before updating to 1.5.2: The patch notes say that a slider plugin is removed. Does this concern the Revolution slider-plugin? I use revo slider throughout my website…

Oh… and one more question: does the patch solve the IE8 issues?

Cheers and TIA,

The removal of the slider plugin really threw a wrench in my website. Now I have to manually replace all of my pictures.

Hi, I am not sure about the slider removal so I will forward this to the developer directly. It will be useful information to me as well I’m sure.

Cheers!

Hi guys,

The slider removal was unfortunately out of our control, and we tried to fight it but ultimately we had no say in the matter. Apologies for any inconvenience caused, but you can still purchase the plugin to use from WooThemes.

The IE8 issue will be resolved this week hopefully.

Update:

We have now a developer-install of our website on a subdomain.
I updated this installation to 1.5.2 and had no problems so far.

Revolution sliders are all up-and-running just like before. I noticed though, that in the WP-edit-panel on the left side the tab ‘Sliders’ which gives access to a Woosliders setup (v. 1.0.8) is now missing. Which I dont really care for, as I dont use them. But maybe this was meant in the patch notes…

Navbar searchbox issue is also fixed (great!).

I’ll backup the Live-website and update to 1.5.2. and gonna check the behaviour on IE8 at home this evening, where I have a machine running WinXP and IE8 available.

Cheers,
