But you can make this even more dynamic by connecting it with the Carousel Remote widget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By using the Carousel Remote widget you can allow your users to navigate the blog post carousel from any part of the page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>To check the complete feature overview documentation of The Plus Addons for Elementor Carousel Remote widget, <a href=\"\/docs\/carousel-remote-elementor-widget-settings-overview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click here<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Requirement&nbsp; &#8211; This widget is a part of The Plus Addons for Elementor, make sure its installed &amp; activated to enjoy all its powers.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a89b3969 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-75 is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-nxt-global-color-8-color has-nxt-global-color-1-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/widgets\/carousel-remote?utm_source=tpae&amp;utm_medium=docs&amp;utm_campaign=text\" style=\"border-radius:5px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LIVE WIDGET LINK<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this process, first drag and drop the Carousel Remote widget and the Blog\/Post Listing widget, and then follow the below steps:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Once you add the Blog\/Post Listing widget, it should show your existing blog posts, set the layout to <strong>Carousel<\/strong> from the <strong>Layout<\/strong> dropdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"482\" src=\"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/blog-post-listing-layout.png\" alt=\"blog post listing layout\" class=\"wp-image-104660\" srcset=\"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/blog-post-listing-layout.png 300w, https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/blog-post-listing-layout-187x300.png 187w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Then go to the <strong>Style<\/strong> tab > <strong>Carousel Options<\/strong> and add a unique id in the <strong>Unique Carousel ID<\/strong> field. This can be any combination of letters and numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"1020\" src=\"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/blog-post-listing-uc-id.png\" alt=\"blog post listing unique connection id\" class=\"wp-image-104661\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Now select the Carousel Remote widget then go to the <strong>Content<\/strong> tab add the same ID in the <strong>Unique Connection ID<\/strong> field and make sure <strong>Remote Type<\/strong> is selected as <strong>Carousel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"408\" src=\"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/carousel-remote-uc-id-remote.png\" alt=\"carousel remote unique connection id remote\" class=\"wp-image-104662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/carousel-remote-uc-id-remote.png 300w, https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/carousel-remote-uc-id-remote-221x300.png 221w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Now you can have two different types of navigation, a Next and Previous button and Dots (image or icon). You can use either one or both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>a) To use the next previous button go to <strong>Prev\/Next<\/strong> tab and turn on the <strong>Next\/Prev Button<\/strong> toggle. You\u2019ll find some customisation options as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"495\" src=\"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/remote-next-prev.png\" alt=\"carousel remote next prev\" class=\"wp-image-104629\" srcset=\"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/remote-next-prev.png 300w, https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/remote-next-prev-182x300.png 182w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>b) But if you want to use dot navigation, then go to the <strong>Dots<\/strong> tab and turn on the <strong>Dots<\/strong> toggle. Now, make sure to have the same number of dot items as the number of slides in your Blog\/Post Listing carousel. You will get some customisation options for the dot navigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"652\" src=\"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/remote-dots.png\" alt=\"carousel remote dots\" class=\"wp-image-104630\" srcset=\"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/remote-dots.png 300w, https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/remote-dots-138x300.png 138w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the number of blog posts will continue to change over time, it is best to use the <strong>Prev\/Next <\/strong>navigation option here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Note: You should disable all the navigation options for the Blog\/Post Listing widget for the best user experience.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you should be able to control your blog post slider with the Carousel Remote widget.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1144\" height=\"661\" src=\"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2023\/02\/carousel-remote-blog-post-demo.gif\" alt=\"carousel remote blog post demo\" class=\"wp-image-104663\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn <a href=\"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/docs\/connect-carousel-remote-with-carousel-in-elementor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how to connect the Carousel Remote widget with the Carousel Anything widget<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":104664,"parent":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","format":"standard","docs":[547,527],"class_list":["post-104659","documents","type-documents","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","docs-carousel-remote","docs-plus-widgets"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/documents\/104659","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/documents"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/documents"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=104659"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/documents\/104659\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/104664"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=104659"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"docs","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etemplates.wdesignkit.com\/theplusaddons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/docs?post=104659"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
