How Do I Change the Card Background Color on My Carousel Widget in Feedspace?

Last updated on June 12, 2026

Overview

The Carousel widget displays your reviews as a horizontal sliding sequence, showing one or a few cards at a time as they loop continuously across the screen. Each review appears inside its own card, and the Card Background Color option lets you set the fill color of every one of those cards at once.

Because the Carousel draws attention through motion, the card color is one of the first visual elements a visitor notices. Choosing a color that complements your site’s palette keeps the widget looking intentional rather than out of place, and enough contrast between the card fill and the text on top makes each sliding review easy to read as it passes by. Some Carousel configurations also surface a Card on Hover Color picker, which lets you apply a separate fill when a visitor’s cursor rests on a card, adding a subtle interactive cue that encourages engagement.

How to Change the Card Background Color for Your Carousel Widget

Step 1: Open the Widgets Section

Log in to your Feedspace account and navigate to the Widgets section from the left sidebar. You will see a list of all the widgets you have created.

Step 2: Edit Your Carousel Widget

Locate the Carousel widget you want to update and click the Edit button (or the pencil icon) next to it. This opens the widget editor.

Step 3: Go to the Design Tab

Inside the widget editor, click the Design tab at the top of the panel. This tab contains all visual customization options for your Carousel widget.

Step 4: Find the Widget Color Customization Section

Scroll down within the Design tab until you reach the Widget Color Customization section. This section groups together all color controls for the widget, including the card color pickers.

Step 5: Set the Card Background Color

Click the Card Background Color picker. A color palette and hex input field will appear. Choose a color by clicking a swatch, entering a hex code directly, or using the hue and opacity sliders. The preview updates in real time so you can see exactly how your sliding review cards will look. If a Card on Hover Color picker is also visible, repeat the same process to set the color that appears when a visitor hovers over a card.

Step 6: Save Your Changes

Once you are happy with the color selection, click Save to apply the changes. Your Carousel widget will now display every review card with the new background color wherever the widget is embedded.

What You Can Do Next

  • Update the text color on your Carousel widget to ensure strong contrast against the new card background color.
  • Set a Card on Hover Color to add a subtle interactive highlight when visitors pause on a sliding review card.
  • Preview your Carousel widget on your live page to confirm the card color looks consistent across all the reviews in the loop.
  • Explore the other options in the Widget Color Customization section, such as the rating star color and button color, to complete a cohesive design for your Carousel widget.
