Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about AI-Powered Carousel, Slider, Video & Photo Gallery Blocks by WP Carousel

Yes. It adds six blocks to the editor (Carousel, 3D Carousel, Slider, Thumbnails Slider, Tiles and Grid), a library of ready patterns and an AI builder. If you prefer shortcodes, the classic carousel builder is still included.

Yes. Select the core Image or Gallery block, open Transform in its toolbar, and pick a WP Carousel block. Your images come across.

It's built not to. Images lazy-load, no WP Carousel script or style loads on a page without a carousel, post and product queries are cached, and you can switch off Swiper or Font Awesome if your theme already loads them.

Every image takes alt text, card titles take the heading level that fits your page (H1 to H6), and visitors can move through slides with the keyboard.

The free version includes posts, pages, custom post types, WooCommerce products, YouTube and Vimeo, six blocks, the AI builder and the patterns. Pro adds more layouts (Masonry, Justified, more 3D styles, Panorama, Ticker), audio and feed sources, more video platforms including self-hosted video, filters, Load More, watermark and scheduling. See the full comparison.

Only if you add an API key or connect a provider, and only when you use Build with AI or Refine with AI. It sends your request and the block's settings, not your images, posts or products. See External services above.

Not unless you opt in. If you choose to share usage data, it sends your site URL, admin email and environment details once a week, and you can turn it off at any time in Settings → Advanced Controls. See External services above.

No. Build and style every carousel, slider and gallery with clicks, from a pattern, the AI builder or a blank block.

Yes. Every carousel is responsive and touch-friendly, with columns and spacing set for desktop, tablet and mobile.

Yes. Add a block in the editor, or use the shortcode or PHP function in posts, pages, widgets, templates and page builders.
