Divi Carousel Free
Divi Carousel Free ships four modules — Image Carousel, Logo Carousel, Video Carousel, and Nested Carousel — built on the same Swiper.js engine as Divi Carousel Pro, free forever with no feature gating or upsell prompts inside the modules themselves.
Key Features
- 4 free modules — Image Carousel, Logo Carousel, Video Carousel, Nested Carousel.
- Nested Carousel — place any Divi module inside a carousel slide, so you can build the slide you actually want instead of being limited to a fixed layout.
- Quick Start presets — eight ready-made configurations on every module. See the presets guide.
- Linked Carousels — connect a thumbnail strip to a main gallery, keyboard operable. See the linking guide.
- Slide Ratio — crop every slide to one shape so mixed portrait and landscape images stop stretching the carousel.
- Per-device navigation — arrows on desktop, dots on tablet, nothing on phone.
- Accessible by default — real buttons, keyboard support, a pause control whenever autoplay is on, and reduced-motion support.
- Assets load only where needed — carousel CSS and JavaScript are skipped entirely on pages without a carousel.
- Toggle which modules are active from the plugin’s settings, keeping the builder’s module list lean.
- Coexists with Carousel Pro — if you later upgrade, existing Free carousel content keeps rendering.
Adding a Module
- Edit a page with the Divi Visual Builder.
- Add a new module and search for Image Carousel, Logo Carousel, Video Carousel, or Nested Carousel.
- Open the Quick Start group at the top of the Content tab and pick a preset to get a working carousel immediately.
- Add your image, logo, video or slide child items, then adjust autoplay, navigation and transitions to taste.
Content Settings
- Quick Start presets — a complete configuration in one click.
- Slides to Show / Slide Spacing / Autoplay / Loop — Slides to Show is per-device.
- Navigation & Pagination — arrows, dots, both, or none, set per device.
- Slide Ratio — Natural, 1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 16:9 or 3:4.
- Slide Width — even columns, or Fit Content so each slide sizes itself.
- Link Group and Role — connect two carousels together.
- Sliding Direction — left-to-right or right-to-left.
- Per-module child items — Image, Logo, Video or Slide, added individually.
Design Settings
- Arrows & Dots — size, colour, position, and dot alignment.
- Transition Easing and Speed — the feel of the movement between slides.
- Slide — spacing and hover styling per child item type.
Free vs. Pro
Divi Carousel Free covers image, logo, video and fully custom nested carousels. For post carousels, team and testimonial carousels, WooCommerce products, Google Reviews, and Instagram feeds, upgrade to Divi Carousel Pro.
FAQ
Does it work with Divi 5?
Yes. Native Divi 5 modules with full Divi 4 support.
What can I put inside a Nested Carousel slide?
Any Divi module — text, images, buttons, blurbs, pricing tables, or several stacked together. Each slide is an ordinary Divi container, so you design it exactly as you would design a section.
Will my carousels break if I install Carousel Pro later?
No — Carousel Free automatically hides its own modules from the builder’s picker when Pro is active, but any content already built with Free modules keeps rendering normally.
Can I turn off the pause button on autoplay?
Not separately — it is what makes an autoplaying carousel accessible. Turning autoplay off removes the need for it, and it disappears.
