 * I cannot change the default interval by adding this code to the shortcode: interval
   =”7000″. No matter what number I try, the interval stays at default 5000. Any
   thoughts?
 * Here are three pages where I’m using the plugin:

 * Love the plugin btw.

 * Hi Bill,
 * Thanks for letting me know, I seem to remember that I’ve had problems with the
   interval before. I’ve just been having a play in jsfiddle, it seems that setting
   the interval through the javascript call instead of using data-attributes (as
   currently) is better.
 * I’ve marked this up as an [issue](https://github.com/tallphil/cpt-bootstrap-carousel/issues/17)
   on the GitHub repository and will fix it for the next release.
 * It might be a little while before I push the next update, as there are a few 
   other things I’d like to get done in the same batch. If you’re in a rush to get
   it working let me know.

 * Thanks Phil. I am indeed in a bit of a rush – my clients at the non-profit want
   the change to happen every 3 seconds. I’ve told them to cool their heels while
   this gets worked out. Many thanks!

 * Hi Bill,
 * I’ve just pushed a new release of the plugin with a re-write which should get
   this working. The javascript is now embedded in the main body of the page along
   with the plugin. It’s specific to that carousel, meaning that you can have multiple
   carousels on the same page with different attributes, and importantly, the interval
   setting now seems to work robustly. Let me know if you run into any troubles 
   with it.
 * I hope this sorts matters out for you. Apologies for the delay.

 * Unfortunately it still seems to be ineffective on my end still. I am on WordPress
   3.7 and using the latest version of this plugin (1.4). I also have bootstrap 
   and jquery included in the header (jquery first). The javascript at the end of
   the plugin does not seem to be affecting the carousel – even when i remove it.
   If I change the default interval in the array within the plugin that also makes
   no difference in the interval time. Any ideas?

 * Hi [@andrewcking](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrewcking/),
 * Are you sure that jQuery is only being included once? I found that having it 
   included twice broke the interval setting. Beyond that, it’s difficult to suggest
   anything without seeing your setup. Is your site public? Can we see the link?
 * Cheers,
 * Phil

 * So I am not exactly sure what I did but I tried it again yesterday after cleaning
   up some of my template markup and I got it working without problems. Sorry for
   the trouble, thank you for a great plugin!
