# Carousel in sidebar doesn’t work

 * Hello,
    It seems that this is very useful plugin. Unfortunately after many tries
   using various settings inputs I could not enable posts carousel working. So I
   need carousel with only one post slide per column in one row. All I could get
   after adding widget shortcode is long empty space in sidebar area. For some reasons
   it seems that all the chosen posts took space verticaly one by another but not
   shown. Will you please show an example of basic settings for sidebar carousel?

 * If only two posts are selected, an empty vertical space in sidebar is still abnormally
   long.
 * However, carousel works if only one post is added. 🙂

 * I just found something that might help. When trying to slide on hidden carousel
   on smartphone, it shows doubled posts (each one repeated).

 * Hi, Please paste the following code in the custom css box

       }

 * One more question:
    Did you set the plugin to reduce thumbnail image quality?
   If yes, is there a code to disable reducing?

 * Yes, please go to Advanced Settings and choose your desired size for the images.

 * I have already tried all available image sizing.
    Thumbnail (1:1 proportions)
   is most suitable for my carousel, just wonder how to avoid image quality reduction…

 * Well, did you tried full size? You can use Fixed Height mode with that.

 * Of course, I did. Default size gives best image quality, but using fixed height
   option still cannot result in 1:1 proportions (maybe an additional option fixed
   width would provide it).
