FAQ

Does this plugin require WooCommerce?

Yes. WooCommerce must be installed and activated for the plugin to function.

Can I use multiple carousels on one page?

Yes. You can add as many Product Carousel Slider blocks as you need on a single page, each with its own independent settings.

Is the plugin mobile-friendly?

Absolutely. The plugin is fully responsive with independent column control for every device size, and supports touch/swipe gestures on mobile.

Does it support touch and swipe on mobile?

Yes. The carousel supports native touch gestures for smooth swiping on all mobile and tablet devices.

Can I customize the colors and styling?

Yes. The plugin includes two design variants, three Add to Cart button styles, full color controls for sections, products, and navigation — plus you can add your own custom CSS for further adjustments.

How do I select products from multiple categories?

In the Product Query settings, enter category slugs separated by commas — for example: featured, new-arrivals, sale.

Why do the navigation arrows only appear on hover?

This is an intentional design choice for a cleaner, less cluttered look. The arrows reveal themselves when a user hovers over the carousel. If you prefer them to always be visible, this can be overridden with a small CSS snippet.

How do I customize the Add to Cart button?

In the block settings panel, enable Show Add to Cart, then choose from Default, Primary, or Outline button styles and set your preferred button text.

Where can I find full documentation?

Full documentation is available on the WordPress Plugin Details page and in the GitHub repository.

Changelog

1.4.0 – 2026-03-13

  • Added: Live editor preview — block now renders a real server-side preview inside Gutenberg; every control change reflects instantly in the editor canvas exactly as it appears on the frontend.

1.3.0 – 2026-03-13

  • Fixed: When “Disable Mobile Slider” was enabled, resizing from a mobile viewport back to tablet or desktop left the page stuck in vertical stack mode. The carousel now correctly re-initializes when moving back to a wider breakpoint.

1.2.0 – 2026-03-12

  • Added: Mobile Product Width control (under Design Variant) — choose between Full Width or Centered layout for products on mobile, applies to both slider and vertical stack modes
  • Added: Outer Padding & Margin controls (under Responsive Columns) — set independent X (left/right) and Y (top/bottom) padding and margin per device breakpoint (Desktop, Tablet, Mobile, Phone) for precise spacing control
  • Added: Navigation Arrow Size controls (under Navigation Settings) — independently set arrow button diameter and icon size per device breakpoint with live preview
  • Fixed: Navigation arrows were oval/stretched due to Dashicons stylesheet width conflict — resolved with explicit !important overrides and aspect-ratio locking on all devices
  • Fixed: Arrow vertical position now correctly centers on the product image area (not the full card including product info below), using JS image-height measurement with load-event fallback
  • Fixed: Arrow icon padding was too wide on large devices, making buttons appear rectangular — resolved with padding:0 and display:flex centering
  • Improved: Arrow size defaults refined across all breakpoints (Desktop/Tablet: 30px button / 14px icon, Mobile: 26px / 11px, Phone: 22px / 10px)
  • Improved: Per-block scoped CSS output via unique block ID for responsive padding, margin, and arrow sizes — no global style conflicts between multiple carousel instances on the same page

1.1.0 – 2026-02-20

  • Improved: Sidebar panels restructured — Typography, Section Colors, Product Colors,
    and Navigation Colors consolidated into context-aware panels for a cleaner editor experience
  • Improved: “Image Display Options” and “Hover Effects” merged into a single “Image Settings” panel
  • Improved: “Product Selection” panel renamed to “Product Query” for clarity

  • Improved: Products limit increased from 20 to 50
  • Improved: Color pickers now use compact 2-column grid layout with reset-to-default buttons
  • Added: Full color customization for View Product button (background, text, hover, border)

  • Added: Icon selector and icon position controls for both View Product and Add to Cart buttons
  • Added: Full-width toggle for individual buttons when only one button is enabled
  • Added: Button Layout controls when both buttons are enabled (Stacked / Inline, order, gap)
  • Added: Full color and font-size customization for View All button
  • Removed: Add to Cart “Button Style” dropdown (Default / Primary / Outline) — replaced by full color controls
