Why Carousel Block?
Rows of static images take up space and get skipped. Carousel Block turns them into a sleek, dynamic slider that captivates your audience – add the block, drop in your images, and publish a beautiful, responsive carousel in minutes.
Everything is configured visually from the block sidebar: reorder slides with drag and drop, add captions and links, fine-tune autoplay and navigation, and choose from Slide, Fade, and Creative transition effects. Responsive controls let you set width, height, and column count separately for desktop, tablet, and mobile, so your carousel looks right on every device.
