 * Hi there,
 * I have been looking for a great content carousel and yours seems to be exactly
   what I am looking for. It works on the site I am developing for my client without
   conflicting with other plug-ins and offers the option of putting content in to
   a slide which is excellent. Most other content carousels fall down on this and
   I am impressed.
 * I do have a couple of queries if at all possible?
 * A) Is it possible to use a shortcode in a slide on the carousel? My client will
   have special offers which will be held in a content block meaning that they have
   only one location to update the offers. I would like to be able to use the shortcode
   for this in slides in the Owl Carousel how would I do this please?
 * B) We would like to have YouTube videos appear in the lightbox pop-up like the
   photos? Is this possible, and if so how do we set it up?
 * C) I would like to be use the Next & Prev navigation on the carousel, but rather
   than have it beneath the carousel I would like to have it to the left and right,
   at either end, and centred vertically in the depth of the images. I have been
   tinkering with the CSS and can position left and right but centering vertically
   is proving an issue. I can set by an integer but as the images will be of differing
   heights this will look odd. If anyone can advise on how to achieve this that 
   would be ace, thank you.
 * The plug-in and my changes to the CSS can be seen here: [http://1078174551.n646418.test.prositehosting.co.uk/zzz-test-home-page-zzz/](http://1078174551.n646418.test.prositehosting.co.uk/zzz-test-home-page-zzz/)
 * I hope these are clear and that someone can help me sooner rather than later.
   It would be great to be able to roll out all the carousels my client needs on
   this project now we have a great plug-in to do it.
 * Many thanks in advance

 * Hi again,
 * Great news! I have found that I can solve a lot of my issues with the Outerbridge
   Nested Shortcodes plug-in.
 * Which just leaves me with the styling issues. Can anyone let me know how to reposition
   the Next and Prev buttons (which I have changed to < and >) so that they are 
   to the left and right of the carousel and centered veritally in the depth. That
   would be really great thanks.
 * You can see how far I have got on this link:

 * Looking forward to some ideas and suggestions.
 * Many thanks
 * Pete
