This was occurring because the main plugin file was changed from ‘easingslider.php’, to ‘easingsliderlite.php’. This small detail was actually causing no problems at all on my own WordPress installs, of which I tested 7. However, for some users this caused the plugin to automatically deactivate, thus hampering the upgrade process that would import your old slides; hence the impression that everything had been deleted.
v2.0.1.3 of Easing Slider “Lite” has revoked this automatic process that was subject to failing. Instead, we’ve chosen to go with a manual process in the form of a button on the ‘Edit Slideshow’ page. Once you’ve upgraded from v1.2.1, you’ll need to press this button to import your own settings. It’s not ideal, but it works.
I’ve taken a quick screencast below of myself following the upgrade procedure. It’s actually very simple, and very familiar. Again, just be sure you import your old settings afterwards. That’s it.

On a side note, Easing Slider “Lite” v2.x doesn’t actually delete your old settings, so if you decide to downgrade back to v1.2.1 your old settings will remain in-tact, as they were before.
Lastly, for most users the upgrade process has actually been going fine, so don’t be alarmed or deterred from upgrading if you haven’t already. Although I’m unaware of the reason why the upgrade procedure seems to differ for some WordPress installs (probably due to their hosting setup), it looks like it has (hopefully) been resolved in taking an alternative approach.

]]>For center alignment, there is a simple fix. Simply use the shortcode below:
<div align="center">[easingsliderlite]</div>
That should do the trick. In the future, we will be adding a shortcode attribute for this. Until then, use this!

I’ve worked pretty hard on this update over the past few months, as much as I possibly can. The response Easing Slider (now Riva Slider “Lite”) received was amazing. Five stars reviews in abundance, it definitely made the daily effort worthwhile.
Hopefully, the praise won’t end you’ll all love the update as much as I do. The workflow has changed for the better and it is now easier than ever to get up and running quickly. Of course, some older features have been removed, including a lot of the somewhat troublesome styling options. Don’t worry, these are set to make a come-back as soon as possible, with an even better and easier to use customisation editor.
Riva Slider “Lite” is just that, light, with minified scripts and styles totalling just 16kb. We’ve also added options for disabling styling and scripting for easier custom theme integration, as well as making the plugin itself feel more ‘native’ in the WordPress admin. It’s now much more developer friendly, with built in filters and actions for extending functionality (write-ups to come soon).
Oh, and did I mention it is fully responsive and mobile compatible
Anyway, I could go on all day but I won’t. Look out for the new website coming shortly. Until then, feel free to mention any bugs you come across here and I’ll get onto them as soon as possible!
Really appreciate all of the great feedback and support over the past two years. Means a lot, and it hasn’t gone un-noticed.
