1. Improved Settings Organization
Settings are now grouped for easier navigation:
Display Settings: Choose how your carousel looks, including different view options.
Full Screen Settings: Customize how the player behaves when fully opened (e.g., like button, share button, open muted).
Pro Plan Settings: Additional options for users on the Pro plan.
✨ Upgrade to the Pro plan to unlock even more advanced features and deeper customization options.
2. New Display Options
Show Products on Slides in the Carousel:
Toggle this on to display product cards directly on each slide.
If a slide has multiple products, they will appear in a mini-carousel.
Clicking a product opens the redesigned quick add view, allowing customers to add to cart directly from the carousel.
On desktop, the quick add view is displayed alongside the video. On mobile, it appears as an overlay.
3. Autoplay Videos
New autoplay options:
All Videos: All videos autoplay on a loop.
None: Videos start playing when hovered over.
Featured Video: Highlight a single video for auto play, making it the main focus as customers scroll through.
4. Auto Scroll Carousel
Set the carousel to auto-scroll after a specific number of seconds.
The autoscroll will pause when customers hover over the carousel.
Setting it to 0 will disable auto-scroll, keeping the slides static.
5. Updated UI Elements
Share button:
Allows customers and visitors to share videos directly with a link.
Makes it easy to share product highlights and customer stories.
New quick add view:
This feature is only available if your Buy Button Action is set to Add to Cart in the carousel widget settings.
When the product card is clicked on a video the product details slide out from the right side of the screen (your videos need to be tagged with a product for the product to be displayed on your video).
Allows visitors to browse products while still watching the video.
Provides a seamless shopping experience without leaving the video view.
6. Full Screen and Floating Player Options
Choose how your player opens:
Full screen mode or floating window.
Position options include bottom right (default), bottom left, top right, or top left.
