 * Hello!
 * I just wanted to let you know that your plugin is using a depreciated method 
   for generating controls for Elementor.
 * As such, it caused me over an hour of troubleshooting to figure out why my Elementor
   editor wouldn’t load properly. Elementor was attempting to tell me, in the Editor
   itself, that there was a depreciated Widget, however it was crashing before it
   could mention which one was causing the error.
 * If you could just fix this in your **/ultimate-carousel-for-elementor/widgets/
   advanced-carousel.php** file, on **line 74**.
 * Just remove the underscore in front of the function name, “_register_controls()”,
   and everything will be back to normal.
 * I’ve already done this change on my own website, and since that function is depreciated
   since Elementor 3.1.0, I believe it’s time for this plugin to be updated to reflect
   this!
 * Thanks
