You can configure the options in the ‘Layout’ settings even more to change the titles in your product slider, show or hide the product ratings, price, description, adjust image size, and much more.
Next comes the ‘Carousel’ settings, which as the name suggests, lets you make changes such as customizing the slider effect, choose how many products to display, adjust the gap between each item, and other details.
At the moment, you can choose between a ‘Slide’ effect and a ‘Coverflow’ effect for your WooCommerce product carousel. You can also adjust the animation speed, and add navigation options by tweaking the settings of your EA Woo Product Carousel widget.
