Troubleshooting Elytra Slot When the Extra Slot Is Missing

Checking Required Accessory APIs

If you open your inventory and do not see the extra slot for your wings, the mod is missing its required framework. Elytra Slot Mod does not create the custom slot on its own; it relies on an external accessory API to function.

• Confirm that you have either Curios API or Trinkets API installed in your game setup, matching what your mod version requires.
• Without Curios API or Trinkets API present, the dedicated back or cape slot will not generate, and you will be forced to use the vanilla chestplate slot.

Resolving Slot and Equipment Issues

If the accessory framework is installed but your wings will not equip or grant flight:

1. Open your inventory and hover over the Elytra. Check the tooltip to confirm it shows compatibility with the back slot.

2. Make sure you are dragging the Elytra into the specific back/cape accessory slot rather than a generic accessory slot or the standard chestplate slot.

3. Ensure the back slot is not already occupied by another item.

Once properly placed in the designated back slot, normal flight abilities will activate immediately while your chestplate remains in the standard armor slot.
