Before you update EXT:ns_revolution_slider, carefully follow the upgrade rules below. Skipping a major version can break your sliders and migrations.
Upgrade One Major Version at a Time
When you update EXT:ns_revolution_slider, always move one major version at a time. Do not jump directly to a much newer major version.
This extension includes WordPress and Slider Revolution. Each major version may include required WordPress and Slider Revolution migrations for database tables, slides, and addons.
If you skip a major version, those migrations will not run. You may then face issues such as:
- Slider Revolution modules opening with “No active slides found”
- Missing or incomplete slides
- Broken frontend sliders
- Missing or incorrectly migrated addons
Required Upgrade Path
Before you move to the next major version, first install the latest patch release of your current major version.
General rule:
Use the table below to plan your update path:
Examples

Steps to Follow After Every Major Version Upgrade
After each major version upgrade, complete these steps before continuing to the next major version:
- Take a backup of the code and database before starting the upgrade.
- Run the TYPO3 extension setup and upgrade wizards.
- Open TYPO3 → Slider Revolution and complete the WordPress and Slider Revolution migration points.
- Check the frontend and confirm that all sliders are working correctly.
If You Already Skipped a Major Version
If you already skipped a major version, restore the affected module from a backup created before that upgrade.
Then follow the correct upgrade sequence:
This ensures that all required WordPress and Slider Revolution migrations run in the correct order.
