Responsive settings fit the carousel to each screen
Set the carousel width, height and column count separately for desktop, tablet and mobile. Pagination and navigation can also be shown or hidden independently on tablet and mobile. Dynamic bullets provide another pagination style when a carousel has multiple slides.
Movement and autoplay settings shape navigation
The base Carousel block includes autoplay, navigation, pagination, looping, speed and autoplay delay controls. Pro adds touch movement for gesture navigation and mousewheel sliding. Free Mode lets visitors drag slides freely, with optional sticky behavior.
Autoplay can be disabled after interaction, paused when the pointer enters the carousel, reversed, or stopped on the last slide. Choose the behavior that suits how visitors should move through the slides.
More transitions change how slides appear
The base block includes Slide, Fade and Creative transitions. Pro adds Cube, Coverflow, Flip and Cards effects, so you can choose a transition style for galleries, project work, logos or banners.
Caption and link settings connect text to each image
Add captions and click action links to slides, and choose whether slide links open in the same tab or a new tab. Pro can place the slide link on the caption as well as on the slide. Advanced caption settings let you display captions on hover, place them outside the image and adjust their vertical alignment. Caption styling includes typography, alignment, overlay colors, text and background colors, and padding.
