Today, we are happy to introduce a new feature to our customers. Now easily you can create custom navigation elements to navigate through the Elementor Carousel widget with any element button, image, icons, Lottie animation, etc.
Requirements:
- You will need Premium Addons free plugin installed and activated on your website.
- Also, make sure that this widget/feature/addon is enabled so you can find it in the Elementor editor
- Premium Addons works only with Elementor Page Builder plugin so you will need to have it installed and activated as well.
- Drag and drop Elementor carousel widget to the page.

- Navigate to widget settings -> Content Type -> select Repeater option.

- Select the Elementor Template that you want to insert inside the carousel. For further information about creating a template for Elementor, please check this article.

- Assign an ID for the template. For example #slide-1 from Custom Navigation Element Selector option. We will use this ID in element CSS ID to link between elements and carousel slide.

- Insert the element you want to use to navigate through the carousel slides. We will use a button in this case. All you need to do is navigate to widget settings -> Advanced tab -> insert a CSS ID that we added before in Custom Navigation Element Selector, in my example its “slide-1“.
- Please make sure that IDs are inserted without the hash ‘#’.

Now everything is settled up and you will be able to navigate through the carousel slides using any elements on your page.
