Not seeing slider options in X Cornerstone, not Cornerstone nor LayerSlider

I feel like an idiot here. I’m trying to add a slider to an X theme site in Cornerstone. Somehow, in X Elements, I don’t get all the premade slider options noted in the documentation. I tried using LayerSlider’s free option instead, but the slider I’ve created isn’t saved and available for me to insert. I’ve ensured themes and plug-ins are current. Any suggestions? Do I need to upgrade? Thanks in advance.

Hi @emilyc15,

Thanks for reaching out.
To get the Layer Slider element, you must enable the Classic Elements from Cornerstone > Permission > Elements > All Classic Elements. I would suggest you add the Layer Slider shortcode inside the Text or Raw Content element, instead of using the deprecated Classic Element.

Hope it helps.
Thanks

Thanks for this fast reply! I am having a problem when I try to follow your instructions. I am wondering if my Cornerstone is out of date? I have updated my X Theme but my Cornerstone options don’t match the documentation and the instructions you have shared.

When I go into Cornerstone > Permission > Elements > I do NOT see All Classic Elements until the bottom of the list. And when I click on it, I still do not receive the detailed items I see in current Cornerstone documentation. This is what I see:


Compare this to what I see in the “Configure Classic Elements” documentation for Cornerstone currently:

Is there another upgrade I should do? Thank you again!
