Hello

I currently using the outdated xstore elementor widget for sliders. Check attachment.

I am wondering if this is causing damage with regards to performance on the site? F.ex: Culmulative shifts.

Is it better for speed performance if i use the new widget with the slides on the backend?
Also attached an images.

Thanks!

Dear @Nicolo,

Should the existing options of the XStore Slides widget meet your current needs, please feel free to continue using it as you see fit.

We developed this new functionality of XStore Slider feature to offer our customers greater customization possibilities in creating their slides. We hope you find it enhances your experience with our products. This enhancement allows you to manually create individual slides using the Elementor builder, providing you with the flexibility to achieve specific content layouts and effects that may not be possible with the standard XStore Slides widget.

For detailed guidance on utilizing this new functionality, please refer to our documentation: https://www.8theme.com/documentation/documentation/slider-set-up/xstore-slider-with-elementor-plugin/.

Dear @Nicolo,

I hope this message finds you well.

Regarding your query on the configuration of content within the XStore environment, our recommendation largely depends on the nature of the content you intend to implement. Given that the content in question aligns with the simpler format supported by the XStore Slides (old) widget, we believe it would be more beneficial for you to continue utilizing this widget rather than creating separate slides with a more complex DOM structure.

However, please consider that if you foresee a need to design highly original and creative content in the future, you might find the new widget advantageous. This tool allows for greater flexibility and creativity, limited only by your imagination.

Should you have any further questions or require additional guidance, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Best Regards,
Jack Richardson
