Step 2
Replace the plugin files via FTP:
Next, delete the folders/files located inside the following directory:
wp-content/plugins/revslider/
Will my Sliders be lost if I update via FTP?
No. Sliders and their data is stored in the WordPress database, and will not be deleted when updating the plugin via FTP. But if you’re still nervous, download a copy of your “wp-content/plugins/revslider/” folder for peace of mind before updating via FTP.
And then replace them with the folders/files located inside the “revslider” folder that can be found inside the zip file you downloaded from CodeCanyon.
