    Hi – thanks for this great and free plugin.

    I needed to format the excerpt so I put it in an extra wrapper div. The only way was to change class-owl-carousel-2-puplic.php in lines 303ff.

    What do you think about extending the hooks so that the complete output for a carousel can be changed in the hook?

    Cheers,
    Andreas

    @ahesterme You can already do that, by making no excerpt output, and then hooking in to dd-carousel-after-content with whatever you want.

    Yeah – I see your point. But then I am loosing the ability to switch on/off the excerpt in the front-end.

    You could simply setup a filter for $output…

    Hello @ahesterme,

    Simply filtering the $output would probably cause most people to break the functionality of the plugin, since the owl-carousel script is included for each insertion (so you can do multiples on each page.

    I did however add two filters and pushed an update to the plugin. I’ve added some notes in the FAQ.

    <?php
add_filter('dd_carousel_filter_excerpt', 'my_filter_carousel_excerpt', 10, 2);
function my_filter_carousel_excerpt($excerpt, $carousel_id){
  $output = '<div class="wrapper">'; // Whatever Class you want
  $output .= $excerpt;
  $output .= '</div>';
  return $output;
}
?>
