Dear XMarket team,
I saw on the WordPress dashboard this message: This theme requires the following plugin: LayerSlider with a link to “Begin installing plugin”
1. I clicked the “Begin installing plugin” link
2. It took me to an “Install Required Plugins” page, with one plugin listed: “LayerSlider”, and a link to “install”
3. I click “install”
4. it takes me to a page titled “Installing Plugin: LayerSlider” and says it’s downloading the package from a directory on my website (where I installed your theme). It has several messages and ends with “Plugin installed successfully.
Plugin activated successfully.”
[it’s looking good so far, but this is where it gets weird]
5. At the bottom of this page there is a link to “Return to Required Plugins Installer”
6. I click it, expecting to see it empty now that I installed the plugin
7. sadly, the plugin is still listed there. And I get the same message on the dashboard that I saw at first: “This theme requires the following plugin: LayerSlider.” And if I go to the plugins page, it says “You need to authorize this site in order to get upgrades or support for this plugin. Purchase a license or enter an existing purchase code.”
It appears to me that it did install but that it is not really a registered version.
I’m hoping this is just a bug in your theme that it continues to appear as though the theme is not installed and registered even though it is.
So here’s my question: Will the LayerSlider get updates in order to keep our site secure?
Thanks
