Product Carousel Component Limitations

[lesliekirk]

The Product Carousel Component is limited to displaying up to 20 products only. I have a store owner who needs it to display at least 240 items and up to 360 items. Only 20 products in a store that has over 20,000 is a bit too limiting.

Also, in the old version, the carousel could move forward or backward.

I'm going to have to see if I can put the old carousel back in place.

lesliekirk I will put in a request to include full cycle within the product carousel. As for increasing the limit of products can you tell me why they need that many products in the carousel? Do they have any data that suggests that users are actually going past 20 products in a carousel? I find it hard to believe that anyone has ever scrolled past 20 products in a carousel unless it was used as some custom tool. Not to mention performance wise adding that many products on load could cause extensive load times and is not considered best practice.

Nick - it's what the store owner has had for quite a while until now, and it's what he requested. I will pass on your comments and concerns.
