Notes before updating to version 1.5
After installing 1.5, you must access the admin area. A background script will start and migrate your data to the new format.Then, check out all pages that use full-page sliders and templates with backgrounds.I’ve tested the migration script several times, but you may need to tweak the settings to get the look you want. Hope you will like the new full page slider.
