Elementor Image scroll can allow you to showcase your long web design screenshots, templates, and portfolios within a mockup.
In this blog post, I’ll show you how to create a long image scrolling effect in Elementor without coding.
Let’s get started.
What is an Elementor image scroll widget?
Elementor Image scroll allows you to display a portion of an image while the rest is hidden and accessible through scrolling. It’s an amazing way to present large images within a limited space, often used on websites.
This widget allows users to add an image in different directions (horizontal/vertical) to see different parts of a large image. It works with two different trigger types: one when the user hovers over the image and the other when the user scrolls up or down with the mouse.
Moreover, this widget allows you to present long images, such as web page screenshots, panorama shots, and more, on your website. The image scroll widget is popular among various sectors, including fashion, businesses, and online stores.
How To Create a Scrolling Image Effect Within a Mockup Using Elementor?
To create an image scroll on website, make sure you have Elementor and the free Xpro Elementor Addons installed and activated.
Note: If these plugins are already installed, proceed to the next step. If not, let’s start with step 1.
Step 1: Install and Activate Plugins:
The first step is to download the Elementor page builder and Xpro elementor addons. You can easily download both of these plugins from the WordPress directory. Here’s a quick tutorial video to install and activate these plugins:
Step 2: Create or Edit a Page with Elementor:
After installing and activating the plugins, go to the page where you want to add a scrolling image or create a new page.
To create a new page, navigate to the WordPress dashboard and click on “Pages > Add New Page.” If you want to edit an existing page, then go to the pages section and click on “Edit with Elementor.”
Step 3: Add a Section and Choose Mockup Images:
In the Elementor editor, we’ll first add a new section where we want to create a scrolling image.
- To add a new section, navigate to ‘+” icon in the center of the Elementor editor page, as you can see in the screenshot below:
- Choose the appropriate column structure for your section according to your requirements. In my case, I’ll select the three-column section for image scrolling.
- First, I’ll modify the alignment of the columns, as you can see in the reference video.
- Once the section is in place, go to the Elementor widget panel and find the “Image widget.”
- Drag and drop the image widget into the selected columns of the newly created section.
- Add the mockup image of the desktop from the media library. You can add any mockup image according to your requirements.
Here you can see a tutorial video for a visual guide on how I’ve performed these steps effectively.
Done? Are you with me so far?
Ok, let’s move on to the image scroll widget.
Step 4: Configure the Image Scroll Widget
Now let’s move on to configuring the image scroll widget.
- First, drag and drop the Xpro Elementor image scroll widget from the widget panel into the same section where we placed the image widget.
- We’ll upload our long image to use in the mockup, within the image scroll widget.
- Once the image has been uploaded, you can customize it to set the image direction, trigger types, and scrolling speed.
- Moreover, you can apply the image masking, add a text badge, and overlay icon (Choose icon from the icon library). You can also insert a link to the complete image box.
- Now, you can customize the styling (blend mode, CSS filters, height, opacity, and more) from the styling tab within the image scroll widget according to your web design.
- After configuring the image scroll widget, go to the advanced settings, where we’ll set the position of the image scroll widget to ‘absolute’ and adjust it further in the video tutorial.
Why use absolute position? Using an absolute position for a widget in web design gives you complete control over where it appears on a page. When a widget is set to absolute position, it is positioned relative to its nearest positioned widget, which means it can be easily placed on the page.
Here’s a quick tutorial on how to set the position and adjust the image scroll in a desktop mockup.
That’s it!
Have you completed the steps? Ok, now update your settings and preview the page.
There, we’ve got it!
In the same way as the first mockup adjustment, I have adjusted the other two mockups to see how they look.
