These widgets are highly customizable and optimized for performance:

• Testimonial Carousel: Rotate through testimonials or quotes, with options for star ratings and multiple slides visible.
• Team Member Carousel: Showcase team members or client logos in a sliding gallery, complete with images and social links.
• Timeline: Display a list of events or steps in chronological order, using an elegant vertical timeline with icons and dates.
• News Ticker: Create a horizontal scrolling feed of recent posts or announcements, much like a news headline ticker.
• Countdown: Build excitement by counting down to a launch, event, or deadline with a live timer.

All carousel widgets (Testimonial & Team Member) use a lightweight slider system for smooth animations and offer responsive controls - you can set how many items show at once on desktop, tablet, and mobile. The timeline and ticker provide eye-catching ways to present information that updates or progresses.

Common Settings

Carousels share common settings like Slides to Show, Autoplay, Navigation Arrows, and Pagination Dots. Once you learn one, you can easily configure the others. Similarly, all items can be styled (colors, typography, spacing) under the Style tab to match your site.

Choose the appropriate widget based on your content:

• Use Testimonial Carousel to build trust with client reviews.
• Use Team Member Carousel to introduce your staff or partners.
• Use Timeline for company history, project roadmap, or process steps.
• Use News Ticker for updates, promotions, or latest blog posts.
• Use Countdown to draw attention to an upcoming event or sale expiration.
