### Block settings
The **Testimonials: Split** section includes multiple **Testimonials** blocks for displaying testimonial content.

Adds a testimonial item with images, product references, review text, reviewer info, icons, and customizable styles for a more engaging presentation.
* **Use consistent image ratios**: This block does not include an image ratio setting, so we recommend uploading all testimonial images with the same aspect ratio (recommended: 1:1) to maintain a clean and consistent slider layout.
* **Optimize image sizes**: Use compressed images with balanced dimensions (recommended width: 1200px–1600px) to ensure fast loading performance without reducing visual quality.
* **Keep testimonial content concise**: For the best visual balance, avoid overly long testimonial text. Short to medium-length content provides a cleaner appearance and improves readability across desktop and mobile devices.
