Hello, @PureInStudio,
I have checked both elements “Products/Product Carousel” and in the settings of these elements, you can show specific products and categories as you want. I made a video for you for a better reference please check here: https://streamable.com/rsoh7b
Note: If I don’t get your point so then please elaborate on your issue by making a video of your issue and share it with us for a better reference to understand.
Regards 8Themes Team.
