Super Carousel allows user to create a carousel or slider in some easy steps. It has its own custom post type to manage images and content. Also supports Category, Tag, Posts and Custom post types. This means a content carousel or image carousel or slider can be easily created from posts, category, tags and any registered custom post type.

This carousel is fully responsive having different settings for different resolutions. For example you might need to display only one image in mobile devices, two in tabs and five in desktops. All this can be managed in a simple and creative way using this carousel.

It’s even easier to put images of different height together so the width is dynamic with fixed height so that your site looks pretty.

Actions in Expert Mode

We understand developer’s needs. Super Carousel comes with four actions.

Action “SuperCarousel_Before” And “SuperCarousel_After

These actions are called before and after all the carousels.

Both the actions are callable by below code.

add_action(‘SuperCarousel_Before’, ‘example_methodname’);
add_action(‘SuperCarousel_After’, ‘example_methodname’);
function example_methodname($carouselId=0) {
//Do your stuff
}

If you need this for specific carousel, append the Carousel Id after the action.

add_action(‘SuperCarousel_Before_[ID]’, ‘example_methodname’);
add_action(‘SuperCarousel_After_[ID]’, ‘example_methodname’);
function example_methodname() {
//Do your stuff
}

Filters in Expert Mode

We always try to give the most out of we can. Super Carousel has some handy filters.

To filter pre-defined variables, use below code.

add_filter(‘SuperCarousel_[type]_[variable]’, ‘example_methodname’, 10, 2);

Possible values of “type” are “Image”, “Content”, “Post”, “YouTube”, “Feeds” and “Flickr”.
Example

add_filter(‘SuperCarousel_Image_title’, ‘example_methodname’, 10, 2);
function example_methodname($data=[]) {
//Do your stuff
return $data[‘caption’];
}

To filter specific carrousel and write custom code, use below filter

add_filter(‘SuperCarousel_[ID]’, ‘example_methodname’, 10, 2);
function example_methodname($type, $data=[]) {
//Do your stuff
return $html;
}

To apply filter to carousels, use below code.

add_filter(‘SuperCarousel’, ‘example_methodname’, 10, 3);
function example_methodname($carouselId, $type, $data=[]) {
//Do your stuff
return $html;
}

To apply custom filter, use below code in HTML box.

{customkey|applyfilter:[filtername]}

Use below code in your child theme functions.php

add_filter(‘filtername’, ‘example_methodname’, 10, 3);
function example_methodname($data=[]) {
//Do your stuff
return [filteredvalue];
}

Available String Filters
