Happing coding.
Amazing thank you – is there any way to put 3 testimonials in the one horizontal bar though?
For example, each testimonial comes in one long horizontal grey bar/banner. Could you please provide the code to maybe have all in that one bar, with 3 columns in it? It would just fit much better and save a lot of space – would be greatly appreciated, but if it’s not something that’s possible no problem. Thanks in advance if you can
Is there any way to make the background of the testimonials black? they are currently grey however the background of my whole store is black.
Yes, there is. In line 17, you can change “background-color: #eee;” to “background-color: #000;”
Thank you very much for your help, much appreciated!!
Hi! Is there a way to decrease the gap between the testimonial – author , and also between the different testminonials?
