Description

Caresort Testimonial Slider for Elementor adds a new “Testimonial Slider” widget to Elementor’s free page builder. Build a list of testimonials through a simple repeater, then choose how to display them:

  • Carousel – a swipeable, autoplaying slider with arrows and dots
  • Grid – a responsive multi-column grid
  • Masonry – a Pinterest-style staggered column layout
  • List – horizontal cards with photo on one side and content on the other
  • Single Card – one featured testimonial, with an optional full-width mode

Features

  • Visual “Choose Style” thumbnail picker for layouts — click a preview image instead of picking from a dropdown
  • Drag-and-drop testimonial widget with 0-5 star ratings (including half stars)
  • 5 layout designs: carousel, grid, masonry, list, single card
  • Client photo, name, position/company, and company logo fields
  • Full Elementor style controls: colors, typography, spacing, borders, shadows, hover animation toggle
  • Accent color control that re-colors the gradient ring, quote badge and arrows in one place
  • Responsive column and breakpoint controls
  • No external JS libraries – lightweight, dependency-free carousel
  • Works with the free (non-Pro) version of Elementor
