How to create a Carousel Infinite Loop scroll in Elementor Slider?

In a looping carousel there is no first or last slide: after the last one, the first comes round again.

The Carousel Anything widget from The Plus Addons for Elementor loops with Infinite Mode. Turn it off and the carousel stops at both ends.

Requirement – This widget is a part of The Plus Addons for Elementor, make sure it’s installed & activated to enjoy all its powers.

Before You Start

• Edition: Pro — The Infinite Mode switch needs The Plus Addons for Elementor Pro. The Carousel Anything widget itself is free.
• Widget to enable: Carousel Anything, switched on under The Plus Addons > Widgets.
• Slides: one saved Elementor template per slide, created under Templates > Saved Templates and published.

Steps

1. Select the Carousel Anything widget and open Style > Carousel Options.
2. In the Desktop tab, turn Infinite Mode on or off. In Pro it is on by default.
3. Publish the page and use the arrows or dots on the front end to check the ends.

How It Behaves

• Tablets and phones can use a different setting: turn on Responsive Tablet or Responsive Mobile in that tab and set Infinite Mode there. It starts switched on.

Limitations

• The Infinite Mode switch is not part of the free plugin. In the free widget it only shows an upgrade notice, and the carousel always loops: in our test Prev on the first slide went to the last slide.

Troubleshooting

The Prev arrow does nothing on the first slide

Infinite Mode is off, so the carousel cannot go back past the first slide. Turn it on to loop.

Autoplay runs backwards

Turn on Infinite Mode. Without it, autoplay reverses at the last slide.
