A custom post type for choosing images and content which outputs a <a href="http://getbootstrap.com/javascript/#carousel" rel="nofollow ugc">carousel</a> from <a href="http://www.getbootstrap.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Twitter Bootstrap</a> using the shortcode <code>[image-carousel]</code>.
The plugin assumes that you’re already using Bootstrap, so you need to load the Bootstrap javascript and CSS separately.
<ul>
<li><a href="http://getbootstrap.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Download Twitter Bootstrap</a></li>
<li><a href="http://www.bootstrapcdn.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Bootstrap CDN</a> (hotlink CSS and javascript files)</li>
<li><a href="https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.4/components/carousel/" rel="nofollow ugc">Bootstrap Carousel in action</a></li>
</ul>
This plugin is available from the WordPress Plugins Directory: <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/cpt-bootstrap-carousel/" rel="ugc">https://wordpress.org/plugins/cpt-bootstrap-carousel/</a>. 
The source code is maintained on GitHub: <a href="https://github.com/ewels/cpt-bootstrap-carousel" rel="nofollow ugc">https://github.com/ewels/cpt-bootstrap-carousel</a>.
<h4>Shortcode Options</h4>
As of version 1.5, nearly all of these options can be set in the CPT Bootstrap Carousel Settings page. However, if you’d like different settings for different carousels, you can override these by using shortcode options…

<li>
