How Do I Enable Autoplay on My Avatar Card Carousel Widget in Feedspace?

Overview

The Avatar Card Carousel widget displays your reviewer’s avatar alongside their testimonial text in a sliding card format. Each card cycles through your collected reviews, giving visitors a visually rich and dynamic way to read social proof on your page.

The Autoplay reviews toggle, found in the Widget Design Settings, makes the carousel advance automatically without requiring any visitor interaction. Once enabled, a Speed slider appears with four options: Delayed, Slow, Medium, and Fast. This lets you control exactly how quickly the avatar cards rotate, so you can match the pace to your page layout and audience reading habits. Faster speeds work well for brief testimonials, while slower speeds give visitors more time to read longer reviews before the next card slides in.

How to Enable Autoplay for Your Avatar Card Carousel Widget

Step 1: Open the Widgets Section

Log in to your Feedspace account. From the main navigation, click Widgets to open your list of created widgets.

Step 2: Edit Your Avatar Card Carousel Widget

Find your Avatar Card Carousel widget in the list. Click the Edit button next to it to open the widget editor.

Step 3: Go to the Design Tab

Inside the widget editor, click the Design tab. This tab contains all visual and layout settings for your Avatar Card Carousel, including the Autoplay option.

Step 4: Find the Widget Design Settings Section

Scroll down within the Design tab until you reach the Widget Design Settings section. This section groups the core display controls for the carousel, including the Autoplay reviews toggle.

Step 5: Enable the Autoplay Reviews Toggle

Click the Autoplay reviews toggle to turn it on. The toggle will switch to its active state, and a Speed slider will appear immediately below it.

Step 6: Set the Rotation Speed

Use the Speed slider to choose how fast the avatar cards rotate. The available options are:

• Delayed: The slowest setting, giving visitors the most time to read each review before the next card appears.
• Slow: A relaxed pace suited for longer testimonials or pages where visitors tend to read carefully.
• Medium: A balanced speed that works well for most Avatar Card Carousel setups.
• Fast: The quickest rotation, ideal for short testimonials where a lively, energetic feel is preferred.

Drag the slider to your preferred speed setting. The preview will update so you can see how quickly the cards will advance before saving.

Step 7: Save Your Changes

Once you are satisfied with the speed setting, click Save to apply your changes. The Avatar Card Carousel widget on your site will now rotate reviews automatically at the speed you selected.

What You Can Do Next

• Add navigation arrows to your Avatar Card Carousel so visitors can also manually browse through reviews at their own pace alongside the autoplay feature.
• Adjust other design settings for your Avatar Card Carousel, such as card background color and font style, to ensure the rotating cards match your brand.
• Filter which reviews appear in the carousel by star rating or tag so that only your strongest testimonials rotate automatically in front of visitors.
• Copy the embed code for your Avatar Card Carousel widget and place it on a high-traffic page, such as a landing page or homepage, to maximise the impact of the autoplay feature.
