 * Hello there
 * I just want to inform about an issue when the plugin is activated on my website.
   The following message is shown on the header of the web:
 * Deprecated: ¡El argumento $control_id está obsoleto desde la versión 3.5.0! in/
   customers/b/b/d/cuentaovejaszzz.com/httpd.www/wp-content/plugins/elementor/modules/
   dev-tools/deprecation.php on line 301
 * I tried deactivating all plugins and reconnecting one by one and found SmartSlider
   is causing this issue.
 * Any updates that may solve this? Thanks in advance
 *     ```

 * Hi [@miguel1258](https://wordpress.org/support/users/miguel1258/)
 * What’s the version number of Elementor you’re using? Where exactly do you see
   the problem?
 * I installed Smart Slider 3.5.1.4 Free and Elementor Free 3.6.1 but this message
   didn’t pop up for me.
 * We’ve recently made a change to follow Elementor’s deprecation of the `controls_registered`
   hook, but we couldn’t release a new version yet that contains this fix. If you
   contact us directly:
    [https://smartslider3.com/contact-us/support/?ref=https://wordpress.org/support/topic/issue-when-activating-the-plugin-deprecated/](https://smartslider3.com/contact-us/support/?ref=https://wordpress.org/support/topic/issue-when-activating-the-plugin-deprecated/)
   I’m happy to send you this new build to see if that fixes the problem you saw.

 * Hello Ramona
 * Thanks for your quick reply. We are running the same version (Smart Slider 3.5.1.4
   Free and Elementor Free 3.6.1). I will contact you through the provided link 
   and see if a new build fixes the problem.
 * Thank you
