# [wpdm_slider] shortcode not working

 * I installed the latest version of WordPress Download Manager v3.1.12 and the 
   latest version of WPDM Extended Shortcodes v2.8.7. When I try and use the `[wpdm_slider
   id="123"]` shortcode I get the following errors when the shortcode runs…
 *  Warning: include(./wp-content/plugins/wpdm-extended-shortcodes/templates4/slider.
   php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in ./wp-content/plugins/
   wpdm-extended-shortcodes/wpdm-extended-shortcodes.php on line 73
 *  Warning: include(./wp-content/plugins/wpdm-extended-shortcodes/templates4/slider.
   php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in ./wp-content/plugins/
   wpdm-extended-shortcodes/wpdm-extended-shortcodes.php on line 73
 *  Warning: include(): Failed opening ‘./wp-content/plugins/wpdm-extended-shortcodes/
   templates4/slider.php’ for inclusion (include_path=’.:/Applications/MAMP/bin/
   php/php7.2.20/lib/php’) in ./wp-content/plugins/wpdm-extended-shortcodes/wpdm-
   extended-shortcodes.php on line 73
 * I checked and there is only a `templates` and `templates3` folder in the extended
   shortcodes plugin, but the main plugin is using `include __DIR__.'/templates'.
   WPDM()->bsversion.'/slider.php';` However, `WPDM()->bsversion` is set as `4` 
   in the main plugin.
