Title: Breaking Carousel Last modified: March 8, 2022 --- # Breaking Carousel * [engineroom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engineroom/) * (@engineroom) * [4 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/) * The below action in the plugin: * add_action( ‘woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item’, ‘gtm4wp_woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item’); * Is breaking a carousel on the website as it is inserting an extra HTML element that the carousel is treating as a slide. * I can manually change it to: * add_action( ‘woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item_title’, ‘gtm4wp_woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item’); * But this means modifying the plugins core code. Is there another way around this so that my change sticks when the plugin is updated?

I most cases, the issue comes down to a CSS rule that needs a change to make your site and the plugin to work. * Thread Starter [engineroom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engineroom/) * (@engineroom) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-15491546) * The element that is being added is being treated by Owl Carousel as a new slide as shown in the source code here – [https://i.imgur.com/FOhdzJY.png](https://i.imgur.com/FOhdzJY.png) * Can’t get rid of this with CSS as the slides are created with the JS when the page loads. * Plugin Author [Thomas Geiger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/duracelltomi/) * (@duracelltomi) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-15492926) * Hi, * I see now and understand the issue. I am sorry but I won’t be able to help in that particular case right now. * I have plans to replace this span element with background AJAX calls but that needs in depth changes in the code. * Thread Starter [engineroom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engineroom/) * (@engineroom) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-15492973) * Damn, I have altered line #1261 of “integration/woocommerce.php” to the below: * `add_action( 'woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item_title', 'gtm4wp_woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item');` * And this has solved the problem. * Is this valid and can I alter the action via a child theme somehow? * Plugin Author [Thomas Geiger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/duracelltomi/) * (@duracelltomi) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-15492994) * Hi, * Oh, that is wonderful! * You can check whether this is valid by checking the data layer on your website. If the view_item_list event is populated with the correct product attributes, then it should be fine. * But you will need to update this line each time you update the plugin. If it works for you, I will introduce an option in plugin settings to select the proper hook for that. * Thread Starter [engineroom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engineroom/) * (@engineroom) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-15494957) * Hi Thomas, * Did a check and it looks like it is working fine: * > [View post on imgur.com](https://imgur.com/HdZ2Zj0) * Any ideas when this change would be pushed live? 🙂 * Plugin Author [Thomas Geiger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/duracelltomi/) * (@duracelltomi) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-15497721) * Hi, * I know you might expect an answer like ‘very soon’ but I am currently working on releasing v1.15 without adding anything new. This seems to be possible next week or worst case the week after next week. * Then there is usually a 1-2 week period where I usually focus on fixing bugs that weren’t surfaced during the beta period. If everything goes fine, I start working on v1.16 after that, so around the end of April. * But: since this is an open source project, you can also help me adding this as soon as possible if you send a PR on the GitHub project page 🙂 [https://github.com/duracelltomi/gtm4wp](https://github.com/duracelltomi/gtm4wp) * Thread Starter [engineroom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engineroom/) * (@engineroom) * [4 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-15502293) * You don’t want my terrible coding in there, I think it best to leave it to you. 🙂 * Thanks for the update. * Thread Starter [engineroom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engineroom/) * (@engineroom) * [4 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-15577429) * Hi Thomas, * Does the latest version include a fix for this issue? Didn’t want to upload and delete my hardcoded fix 🙂 * Thanks, Joe * Thread Starter [engineroom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engineroom/) * (@engineroom) * [4 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-15659439) * Any news on this? * [ayw18](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ayw18/) * (@ayw18) * [4 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-15662797) * Got the same problem. * The tweak as mentioned earlier by [@engineroom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engineroom/) also seems to work fine in the latest version of the plugin. Only this time the alternate code should be on line #1275. * Thread Starter [engineroom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engineroom/) * (@engineroom) * [4 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-15722252) * Hi [@duracelltomi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/duracelltomi/), * Do you think this change will be integrated into the core code with an up and coming release? * Thanks, Joe * Thread Starter [engineroom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engineroom/) * (@engineroom) * [3 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-15773452) * Any news, sorry to keep chasing. [@duracelltomi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/duracelltomi/) * [enjindev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/enjindev/) * (@enjindev) * [3 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-16172620) * Hi, found out this post while posting a new support ticket : [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/duplicated-owl-item-for-carousels/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/duplicated-owl-item-for-carousels/) * Thank you [@engineroom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engineroom/) for the fix, still working. But as mentioned by others, when can we expect it to be on an update ? Because each time your plugin will be updated, we’ll loose the fix… Viewing 14 replies - 1 through 14 (of 14 total) The topic ‘Breaking Carousel’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/duracelltomi-google-tag-manager/assets/icon-256x256.png? rev=1708451) * [GTM4WP - A Google Tag Manager (GTM) plugin for WordPress](https://wordpress.org/plugins/duracelltomi-google-tag-manager/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/duracelltomi-google-tag-manager/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/duracelltomi-google-tag-manager/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/duracelltomi-google-tag-manager/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/duracelltomi-google-tag-manager/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/duracelltomi-google-tag-manager/reviews/) * 14 replies * 4 participants * Last reply from: [enjindev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/enjindev/) * Last activity: [3 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/breaking-carousel/#post-16172620) * Status: not resolved
