How Do I Adjust the Scroll Speed on My Vertical Scroll Widget in Feedspace?

Last updated on June 12, 2026

Overview

The Vertical Scroll widget displays your review cards in a continuously looping vertical feed, scrolling upward in a seamless marquee motion. Because this widget relies entirely on movement to surface new reviews, the speed at which cards travel through the feed directly shapes how visitors experience your social proof. A feed that scrolls too fast becomes difficult to read, while one that scrolls too slowly may feel static and fail to draw attention.

The Scroll Speed option in the Marquee Settings section gives you precise control over this motion. You can choose from four settings: Delayed, Slow, Medium, and Fast. Delayed introduces a pause between each scroll cycle, making it ideal for kiosks or displays where visitors need extra time to read each card. Slow and Medium suit most websites and landing pages, keeping the feed lively without sacrificing readability. Fast works well for high-energy contexts where a dynamic, attention-grabbing motion is the goal. Matching the scroll speed to your content and audience ensures every review gets the attention it deserves as it moves through the widget.

How to Adjust the Scroll Speed for Your Vertical Scroll Widget

Step 1: Open the Widgets Section

Log in to your Feedspace account. In the left-hand navigation menu, click Widgets to open the list of all widgets you have created.

Step 2: Edit Your Vertical Scroll Widget

Locate the Vertical Scroll widget you want to update. Click the Edit button (or the pencil icon) next to that widget to open the widget editor.

Step 3: Go to the Design Tab

Inside the widget editor, click the Design tab at the top of the settings panel. This tab contains all visual and motion options for your Vertical Scroll widget, including layout, card styling, and marquee behaviour.

Step 4: Find the Marquee Settings Section

Scroll down within the Design tab until you reach the Marquee Settings section. This section groups all options that control how the vertical scrolling motion behaves, including scroll direction and scroll speed.

Step 5: Set Your Preferred Scroll Speed

Within Marquee Settings, locate the Scroll Speed slider. Click or drag the slider to select one of the four available options:

  • Delayed: Adds a pause between scroll cycles, giving viewers extra time to read each review card before the feed advances.
  • Slow: Scrolls at a gentle, relaxed pace that suits most content-heavy pages where readability is the top priority.
  • Medium: A balanced default speed that keeps the feed visually engaging without rushing readers.
  • Fast: Scrolls quickly for a high-energy, dynamic effect, best suited to promotional sections or eye-catching displays.

After selecting your preferred speed, the widget preview updates immediately so you can see exactly how the feed will look and move on your site.

Step 6: Save Your Changes

Once you are satisfied with the scroll speed, click Save to apply your changes. The updated speed setting will take effect on every page where this Vertical Scroll widget is embedded.

What You Can Do Next

  • Enable alternate direction scrolling on your Vertical Scroll widget so reviews travel downward instead of upward, giving your page a fresh visual variation.
  • Customize the card design of your Vertical Scroll widget, adjusting colors, fonts, and spacing so the scrolling feed matches your brand identity.
  • Filter which reviews appear in your Vertical Scroll widget by star rating or source to make sure only your strongest testimonials scroll through the feed.
  • Copy the embed code for your updated Vertical Scroll widget and place it on a new page or section of your site to extend the reach of your scrolling review feed.
