Available features in custom contents carousel module
The main and most important feature is possibility to build unlimited number of carousel with unique custom contents like videos, pictures, or just with texts. Each carousel can be personalized, below you can read about available personalization features
Module after installation creates two sections in the shop
First, is a section where you can manage main module settings (its a module configuration page). There you can enable library called "lightslider". This is the core of carousel engine. This script is not a part of prestashop. Sometimes theme developers include this library to their theme. In case of this - you can enable or disable the usage of lightslider script included to this module. Just to avoid redundancy of scripts (performance cases).
The secon section is a section under modules menu item. You can find there two new positions: (see screenshot)
- create custom contents carousel
- create new item for carousel
