“The7 Loop Slider” widget allows to represent your posts as a slideshow/carousel with advanced layout and animation (fig. 1):

If you don’t see “The7 Loop Slider” among your widgets, please make sure “Loop” feature is enabled in Elementor -> Settings -> Features (fig. 1.3):

Content

First of all, you need to create a Loop Template for an individual post under Templates -> Saved Templates -> Loop Item (fig. 2.2). You can also create the template directly in the page editor (fig. 2.1):

The idea of building a template is the same as for native Elementor Loop Items: you can insert Featured image widget, the Post Title widget, the Post Excerpt widget, etc. And style them in your own way.

Second “Query” tab in widget settings offers to select which posts to display (fig. 2.3):

In the Content tab, you can also find “Scrolling” settings (fig. 2.4), which allow to:

• enable autoplay, infinite loop and pause on hover;
• specify autoplay speed;
• configure transition animation and speed.

“Layout” tab (fig. 2.5) allows to select:

• number of columns for different devices;
• gap between columns;
• breakpoint in-between Wide Desktop to Desktop layouts.

You can also decided whether you want to show/hide or display on hover slider Arrows and Bullets (fig. 2.6). These options are responsive.

Style

This tab allows to configure appearance of slider navigation: arrows and bullets. Under the “Arrows” tab (fig. 3.1), you can:

• select arrows icons;
• configure their size;
• specify arrows background width, height and border;
• select colors;
• adjust arrows position.

“Bullets” tab (fig. 3.2) has almost the same settings. But instead of selecting icons, you can choose bullets style: small dot stroke, scale up, stroke, fill in, square or rectangular.
