Remove Repeat Images in Feature Carousel
Currently, featured event images repeat in the carousel for events with multiple formats (hybrid) and multiple dates (recurring/series). For example, a hybrid event shows a featured image in the carousel twice, back-to-back, which looks like a mistake. And for events in a series or with multiple days, the images show as back-to-back are the same unless there are other program dates in between. It becomes repetitive.
In order to keep the carousel effective and organized, we can currently only feature one-off events, which is a missed opportunity.
It would be great if the event, no matter the format/recurrence, could be featured as an image in the carousel just once, or be customized per individual library need.

Patrons may make the assumption that there are multiple, similar programs and attempt to sign up for both without realizing they're actually the same program.

Patrons may perceive repeated carousel images as a mistake, leading to a confusing experience. Providing the ability to customize the images for hybrid or recurring/series events would create a more polished presentation and allow for better highlighting of diverse programming.
