Questions

Good to know

Is the Testimonial Carousel block free?

Yes. Testimonial Carousel is one of the 62 free blocks of Bright Addons Blocks Library on WordPress.org. Bright Addons Blocks Pro includes it as well.

Do I need Elementor for this block?

No. It is a block for the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg). Elementor is not needed. If you use Bright Addons Pro for Elementor on the same site, both plugins work side by side.

Will it slow down my pages?

No. Each block loads only its own small CSS and JavaScript, and only on pages where it is used. Blocks you do not need can be switched off in Bright Blocks.

Does it work with my theme?

Yes. The blocks work with block themes and classic themes, and follow your theme fonts. Wide and full width alignment are supported.

Can I animate it?

Yes. Open Entrance animation in the sidebar and pick one of 40 animations with its duration and delay. Visitors who prefer reduced motion see no animation.
