Hi
I would like to display Related Products in a carousel on the right sidebar. I want a verical slide showing 3 slides at the time.
The option Slide direction isn't working: it only slides horizontaly even when I change it to Verticaly
It is working fine with the Carousel Legacy turned on but not with the new version of the carousel. I don't want to use the old version as it isn't responsive
I set the number of columns to 1 and rows to 10
Products per slide 3
Any idea why the slide direction stays horizontal even whe I set it on Vertical
Thanks

Hi,

Well, the new carousel system doesn't support vertical sliding.
So for now that's not possible.
Note however that if you use only the legacy carousel on a 1 column slider, then there is no need for it to be responsive as it should already display fine on mobile devices.
The point of the responsive is to go from main columns to 1 column on mobile devices.

Thank you for your answer
I can't use the legacy carousel because the image doesn't rezise properly
I hope the vertical slide will be available in a near future !
Best wishes

Just hit this problem with an upgrade to v4.2.2
Was going to turn off all legacy features ... :evil:

As this issue is over 2 years old what are the plans / direction for this feature?

Hi,

There is still no real solution with the owl library (which we use for the carousel), to have vertical sliding.
I've found some things regarding this here:
stackoverflow.com/questions/25079495/how...-carousel-vertically
However, this requires the items to have a defined and fix height which isn't the case with HikaShop. We don't know the height of the elements and it can even change from one element of the listing to the other on the same page.
However, if you add CSS similar to what is described there, changing the dimensions so that it fit your precise case, you should be able to achieve it with the current system. Since you're a developer, you should be able to do it. But as a default easy to use option, I don't see a solution yet.
I suppose we'll actually remove that "vertical" setting from the carousel settings area since I don't think we'll be able to use it unless we redo the whole carousel system with another carousel library.
