Migrate to DK Carousels

DK Elementor Testimonial Carousel is retired. DK Carousels replaces it with a reusable Testimonials carousel type. Existing page content and legacy plugin settings are not automatically migrated. Elementor is not required.

Recreate the carousel

  1. Back up the site and record every page using the legacy carousel. Save the testimonial content, images, order, autoplay delay, navigation choices, colors, and any custom styling.
  2. Install and activate DK Carousels with DK Base Plugin. Open DK Plugins > Carousels, add a carousel, and choose Testimonials.
  3. Recreate the testimonial items in their intended order. Configure the responsive layout, playback, navigation, and design controls to suit the page. Preview the carousel before publishing.
  4. Publish the carousel and copy its generated shortcode. Replace the old page containers using dk-testimonial-carousel and dk-testimonial-slide with that shortcode, using an appropriate shortcode block or widget in the page editor.
  5. Check all affected pages on desktop and mobile. Verify testimonial content, images, navigation, autoplay, and keyboard interaction. Adjust any old CSS that targeted the legacy carousel markup.
  6. Deactivate DK Elementor Testimonial Carousel once every legacy instance has been replaced, then test the pages again without its scripts and styles. Keep a backup until the migration is verified; remove the legacy plugin only when it is no longer needed.

The legacy plugin's container classes do not become DK Carousels records. DK Carousels import/export transfers its own carousel records; it does not import legacy page containers or settings.
