 * Hello,
    When I add the shortcode in the description field of a category, the 
   images are present but are displayed vertically and are not in a carousel. The
   same shortcode works without any problems on another page. If anyone has any 
   idea what the problem is? For information I can also translate the plugin into
   French, I have already done it for another plugin. This plugin is really very
   practical and has a lot of customization options compared to other plugins. Thank
   you.

 * Solved, the scripts were not loaded.
    The answer was simply in the FAQ: How to
   use shortcode/slider in theme template file?
 * add_filter(‘carousel_slider_load_scripts’,’carousel_slider_load_scripts’);
    function
   carousel_slider_load_load_scripts( $load_scripts) { return true; }
