Hello people.
I want to set up a slide / carousel view to have the infinite loop effect. And that scroll per item, and that there is no shortage of products in the loop.

Hi! These are great ideas but unfortunately none of them is currently possible in Slider Views without a substantial amount of custom code. There is no infinite scrolling effect; instead, sliders must return to the beginning of the list before the loop can repeat. Scrolling operates per page instead of per item. The only way to scroll per item in a Slider View is to set up the View to display one item per page, and this is not very flexible.

Infinite scrolling is possible with the portfolio slider with thumbnails module, as an alternative. You could remove the thumbnails from the bottom and just use the top portion as a carousel:

https://toolset-demo.discover-wp.com/portfolio-demo/portfolio-slider-with-thumbnails/
The module shown in the links above does offer an infinite scroll feature, but it does not support multiple items per page.

If you'd like to see all the features you described added to Slider Views, I encourage you to submit your ideas to our management group. You can do that here: https://toolset.com/home/contact-us/suggest-a-new-feature-for-toolset
