Carousel Widget Settings

  • Name – title of the widget style.

  • Number of photos to load (max: 25) – determines the total number of photos in the Carousel. Values greater than 10 can have impact on the general load time of the page. Please configure this value at your own discretion.

  • Orientation (Horizontal, Vertical) – determines if the Widget will slide horizontally or vertically.

  • Slide by (Item, Page) – determines if the carousel slides per one item, or the page of items.

  • Use jQuery in animations on slide – CSS animation is used by default, but can be replaced by jQuery.

  • Slide Animation duration (in milliseconds) – determines how quickly the slide transition occurs.

  • Set as Infinite – when enabled, items will display in a continuous loop regardless of navigation.

  • Minimum # of photos required to activate Infinite Carousel – determines the threshold for infinite Carousel activation. We recommend a value higher than the total visible items. For example: in a 3-item Carousel, this should be set to 4.

  • Auto play – when enabled, the Carousel slides automatically, per the defined interval

  • Interval (in milliseconds) – when auto play is enabled, the interval determines how quickly the Carousel slides.

  • Show All Photos Button URL – links to the Gallery Widget page.

Gallery Widget Settings

  • Name – title of the Widget style.

  • Sorting Type (None, Packery)Packery sorting will magnify every fifth image.

  • Images per Page – determines how many images load per gallery page.

  • Page to Load – determines the number of pages to load as a default; set to one (1) to show the “Load More Button” on the first page.

  • Enable Gallery Filter (Yes, No)enables categories, and streams as filters.

  • Add new Stream Filter – adds the specified stream as a filter item.

  • Add new Category Filter – adds the specified category as a filter item.

  • Enable Show All as Filter Item (Yes, No)adds “Show All” as a filter option.

  • Sticky Menu (Yes, No)when enabled, the filter menu’s position is locked

  • Show Go to Top Button (Yes, No)adds a “Go to Top” button at the bottom of the gallery

  • Include Stream object(s) on the items (Yes, No) – when enabled, the stream ID can be used as a class selector
