 * Hello,
    I make tests before buying Visual Portfolio plugin (I need posts popups)
   and I’m a bit stucked with a CSS problem : When choosing “Carousel” mode for 
   posts + “Classic” element style mode for the title & extract, the carousel arrows
   move down by the value of the text height : they are no longer vertically centered
   on the thumbnail. Maybe it is because with “Classic” the caption is under the
   thumbnail and not vertically centered upon the picture (as for the other hover
   style options) the CSS margin-top calculation for the arrows is wrong in this
   case. Could you fix the code or tell me how to fix the CSS in order to have the
   carousel arrows vertically centered on all devices and with any caption (wether
   it is one or 2 lines of any size of text) under the thumbnail ? Because it is
   to complex for me to fix…

 * My next quest would be to know how to set the left & right arrows out of the 
   post carousel. Would you have an tip ?
    Or is there a setting to do so on the
   premium version ?

 * Hey.
 * The center of the carousel is not the center of the thumbnail, because you have
   the whole item (thumbnail + caption) inside the carousel.
 * This can be solved with custom CSS, but we don’t provide customizations. You 
   will need to make it on your own or with 3rd-party help.
 * Moving arrows outside the carousel container is also possible with custom CSS
   but can be a bit trickier than vertical centering.
 * Unfortunately, the Pro plugin will not give you a solution for this problem.
 * Regards, nK.
