The Testimonial Carousel is a dynamic, sliding widget designed to showcase multiple testimonials in a compact, engaging format. It’s perfect for landing pages where you want to provide social proof without taking up too much vertical space.
Responsive Layout Control
The Carousel allows you to control how many testimonials are visible at once, depending on the visitor's device. This ensures your social proof is always legible and looks professional.
Cards per View
Adjust the number of visible cards in the Appearance panel:
- Desktop: Typically 3 or 4 cards create a broad, impressive display.
- Tablet: 2 cards usually offer the best balance on mid-sized screens.
- Mobile: 1 card is the standard for a clear, focused reading experience.
Card Spacing (Gap)
Fine-tune the horizontal space between slides using the Gap control. A wider gap provides a cleaner, modern look, while a tight gap keeps the focus on the volume of feedback.
Intelligent Behaviors
The Testimonial Carousel is built for engagement right out of the box, featuring several automated behaviors:
- Infinite Looping: Your testimonials will continuously cycle, ensuring visitors never see a "dead end."
- Auto-Play: The carousel automatically transitions between testimonials, drawing the visitor's eye to the moving content.
- Touch & Swipe Support: Fully optimized for mobile users—visitors can easily swipe through your testimonials with a finger.
Visual Customization
Just like the Trust Wall, you have full control over the visual identity of your carousel:
Themes & Colors
- Theming: Switch between Light, Dark, or Auto themes.
- Branding: Set your Primary Color for stars and icons to match your brand's palette.
- Surface Control: Customize background and text colors, or use a Transparent Background for seamless integration into your site's sections.
Precision Borders
Give your cards structure with:
- Border Radius: Soften the design with rounded corners or keep it modern with sharp edges.
- Border Styles: Choose between Solid, Dashed, or Dotted lines.
- Units: Enter exact values in px, rem, em, or %.
Content & Moderation
Use the Display panel to select what information is shown on each slide:
- Toggles: Show or hide Ratings, Avatars, Dates, and User Names and custom fields.
- Field Placement: Use the drag-and-drop interface to move titles, logos, or custom fields to the Header, Content, or Footer of the card.
- Filtering: Manually select which testimonials from your collection should appear in the rotating display.
Best Practices
- Consistent Height: The carousel looks best when your testimonials have similar lengths. If you have extreme variations, consider using the Trust Wall instead.
- Highlight Top Reviews: Use the Manual Filter to ensure your most impactful testimonials are the first ones visitors see.
- Desktop Density: Don't crowd the desktop view—3 cards is often the "sweet spot" for readability and impact.
