    Hello,

    I must say that this is a really nice plugin and it works like a charm. However, I have a small feature request. I`ve seen that you integrated a shortcode solution to the add URL problem earlier, but, it is not working for me. Actually it is, but the carousel options are not passed through.

    I have an idea, though not sure whether it is possible or how much trouble it will take to make something like that.

    How about you integrate a meta field for the URL in the Carousel Custom Post Type? Just a plain text field, and below it maybe a checkbox for the option to open it in a new tab.

    I am using “<?php echo do_shortcode(‘[all-carousels]’); ?>” in a template file, and I would like to be able to add links easily in my carousels. I think that will give the users a lot more flexibility.

    Looking forward to your response. Thank you. 😀

    I am surprised to see your suggestion. I already did this in new version(1.4.0).
    In this version you can add URl from custom post.

    You are using this shortcode. This code will also work.
    <?php echo do_shortcode('[all-carousels]'); ?>

    You can also use:
    <?php echo do_shortcode('[carousel_slider]'); ?>

    Hey,

    Thanks for the reply, and thanks for the plugin update today. That was exactly what my idea was. 😀

    Anyway, if for some reason someone finds the above code doesn`t work when adding arguments, try changing the beggining quotes from single to double quotes, like this:

    <?php echo do_shortcode("[carousel_slider items = '4' items_desktop = '4' items_desktop_small = '3' items_tablet = '2' items_mobile = '1' single_item = 'false' slide_speed = '200' pagination_speed = '1500' rewind_speed = '1000' auto_play = 'true' stop_on_hover = 'true' navigation = 'true' scroll_per_page = 'false' pagination = 'true' pagination = 'true' auto_height = 'false']"); ?>

    Nice work, and keep up the good work. Topic closed. 😀

    This might also go into a new thread, but, I found some bugs (not sure whether plugin related or it is just the theme on the website I am working on).

    The setup image sizes doesn`t work. When I go to Settings>Carousel Slider and try to alter: Carousel Images Size, no matter what I put in there it always defaults to: full resolution. Is this option only supported in the pro version of the plugin or?

    I have also noticed that the pagination and previous and next buttons are over the main container for the images. I think it might look better how they were before, below the carousel (just my opinion though). 😀

    All in all, great work.
