Revolution slider header

The plugin Revolution Slider is included in the theme and you can use it as it is, without buying a license. You can create your own slider or use an already-built demo slider that can be found in the theme pack.

Note: You DON’T need a buyer license to use these plugins. We purchased an extended license we give all our clients plugin updates through theme updates. There is only one license per purchase – so only we can use this license to get the updates and then share the update with our clients.

You will need to add the alias name of the slider that you wish to use. The alias name can be found in the Revolution Slider-Edit slider section
