1.4.1 update issues
-
We recently updated from 1.3 to 1.4.1.
We noticed two issues that broke our site:
1. carousel attribute names were changed. This caused carousels to revert to the default settings. I would suggest providing backwards compatibility by allowing both forms of attribute names to be used.
2. performance improvement changes were made in the shortcodes. output buffers were added. “ob_start()” is the correct thing to call, but per https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Shortcode_API, the code should be “return ob_get_clean();” not “ob_end_flush();”. Otherwise if you had a page with “Some Content [carousel][/carousel]”, Some Content will end up after the carousel not before. Once I made the change to “return ob_get_clean();” it worked correctly.
Feature request: allow extra attributes to be used on the items. This will allow the carousel to be used for things like fancybox galleries.
