Product Carousel

Hi Mr. Peri,

As of now we only have static widgets for UPCP Product List, Random Products, Recent Products and a search bar. Implementing a carousel is a great idea and we would definitely take it into consideration for future updates.

In the meantime, we may suggest you trying the Ultimate slider which is a new plugin which creates a customizable carousel. Perhaps, you could try and add your most popular products into the carousel.

Let us know how it turns out for you!

Best,

Thanks, this will help.

I notice that the products text box are where I add the description of the product doesn’t function all that well.
For examples, when I add bullets it doesn’t appear on the site’s front end. Also, if I ad media as a gallery, when I save and go into the product late to edit text, the gallery doesn’t appear as a gallery any more but rather as single images throwing the front end completely out from what it looked like before.

Hi Mr. Peri,

Are you referring to the product description boxes in the product catalog plugin (not the slider)? If so, then it is normal that the HTML styling (lists, links, etc.) doesn’t render in the different catalog layouts (thumbnail, list, detail). This is done on purpose to maintain good formatting and structure. If you visit the individual product page, all the HTML formatting and styling should render properly there.

Do you mean you’re adding a gallery using the WordPress gallery functionality?

I am on Product Catalogue, then editing the product, at product description I need to ad some bullets and some images.

For bullets I tupy my list, then selct the list and click the Bullets button on the editor provided where I type in the product description. It shows the bullets in the back end, but when I save and refresh my single product view there are no bullets, only all my words next to one another in one long sentence.

For images, I click on the Add Media tab at the top of the block where I ad the produt description in Product Catalogue on the back end of the site, select ad gallery, select y images, ad the gallery. It all shows fine. then I save ad view my product, gallery is there and all is well, BUT, if at a later stage I have to go and edit the product, if Iopen the product editor on the back end of the site, it’s as if it throws away the fact that I added the images as a gallery and only has then in as individual images, so when I save and view my product agan, it completely throws out the images from small thumbnails next to one another to large blurry imges one below the other.

The site and page I am busy with is https://itas.peridemo.co.za/access-control-doors-and-equipment/
One of the products with said gallery and missing bullets are https://itas.peridemo.co.za/access-control-doors-and-equipment/?SingleProduct=3. For example, under the heading “Suitable for” all those words seperated with commas are supposed to be a bulleted list. Under “Structure features and controls” each sentence is supposed to be a new bullet. On the back end in the product cataogue single product editor it is bulleted, it just doesn’t pull it to the front end.
The Gallery here is how it should look, small thumbnails and when I select a photo it opens a lightbox with a bigger photo. If, however, I need to go and edit this product, the moment I go into the backend single product editor, it throws the gallery setting away and would a the images one below the other but in super bad quality.

The bullet point issue is caused by your theme, which is setting the list style to “inline-block,” which is making the bullet points not show. If you add the following custom CSS to your catalog, you’ll see that the bullet points should now appear:

.prod-cat-addt-details-desc-div li {
display: list-item;
}

For the images, we’re uncertain as to why the image gallery would save correctly the first time, but then not after you edit it again. Have you tried using a different gallery shortcode/plugin (instead of the built-in WordPress gallery functionality)?

If you’re using our premium version, you should make use of our additional image functionality instead, as it allows you to more-easily control and display extra images, in a way that fits perfectly into the catalog layout.
