## Frequently Asked Questions

**Q: What should I do if the Flip Box carousel is not displaying correctly?**
A: If the Flip Box carousel isn't displaying as expected, ensure that you've added a unique ID in the Unique Carousel ID field of the Flip Box widget. This ID must match the Unique Connection ID in the Carousel Remote widget. If these IDs don't match, the connection won't work, leading to display issues.

**Q: What are the best navigation options for the Flip Box carousel?**
A: For optimal user experience, it's recommended to disable all carousel navigation options in the Flip Box widget. Instead, use the Carousel Remote widget to control navigation with either Next/Previous buttons or dot indicators. This separation enhances usability and keeps the interface clean.

**Q: What customization options are available for the navigation buttons?**
A: When using the Next/Previous buttons for navigation in the Flip Box carousel, you can customize their appearance under the Prev/Next tab. This includes options for color, size, and style, allowing you to match the buttons with your site's design for a cohesive look.
