## Frequently Asked Questions

**Q: What should I do if the image rotating background is not displaying?**
A: If the image rotating background isn't showing, ensure that the Nexter Blocks plugin is installed and activated. This block relies on Nexter Blocks to function properly. Additionally, check that you've selected images in the 'Select Multiple Images' section and that the background settings are correctly configured in the Style > Background Deep Layer menu.

**Q: What transition effects work best for the image rotating background?**
A: Choosing the right transition effect can greatly impact user experience. The Transition Effects dropdown in the Container block allows you to select various effects. For a smooth visual transition, consider using fade or slide effects, which can create a more polished look. Adjust the Transition Duration (ms) to ensure the timing feels natural.
