 * Hello, I upgraded to the latest version and my slideshow disappeared. I had to
   activate the plugin again. I do not see a button to import the settings. Please
   advise. Thank you!

 * Do you see an option to import the settings at the end of the “Settings” Easing
   Slider admin panel?

 * Ok. Could you give the development version of the plugin a try? Some changes 
   to the legacy settings system have been made. You can download it [here](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/easing-slider.zip).
 * Once installed try checking for the import settings field again.

 * Hello, when I try to install the development version it’s telling me destination
   folder already exists, installation failed.

 * Uninstall the current version you have installed of Easing Slider before installing
   the development version.

 * Yes, but I thought you wanted to import your old settings from v1?
 * If you’d rather just re-create the slideshow, there is no point in doing any 
   of this.

 * Sorry for the misunderstanding. Yes, I do want to import my old settings and 
   slides from v1. So if uninstalled the upgrade and it would delete those how I
   could I then still import them?

 * Uninstalling won’t delete your v1 settings, only v2 settings. So regardless of
   what you do with v2, you will always still have access to your v1 settings.

 * Thank you for all the information. With the developer version I was able to import
   the settings. When I go to edit slideshow I now see my slides. However, when 
   I click on the slides, or the buttons on the right like Transition etc. nothing
   happens. And my website the slides have a different format. The nice format with
   the shadow is gone. Thanks in advance for your help.

 * Would it be possible to provide me with admin access to the site? I can check
   the Easing Slider admin panels for errors for you. My email is [info@matthewruddy.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upgrade-issue-14/info@matthewruddy.com?output_format=md)
   if you want to email the details to me there.

 * This worked for me. After downloading and installing the zip file Matthew linked
   at the beginning of this thread, I had a yellow highlighted notice at the top
   that reminded me to import pre-existing settings. When I clicked that, I landed
   on my slideshow’s settings page with the big blue button to import settings.

 * That’s the correct procedure [@excanuck407](https://wordpress.org/support/users/excanuck407/),
   glad it all went accordingly 🙂
