Tips for adjusting the placement of captions on individual Bootstrap carousel slides

Just a thought that has crossed my mind - I'm currently working on a carousel/slider using bootstrap and I am curious about how to change the location of the caption on each slide. I've experimented by adding an id along with the class but it did not yield the desired results, and renaming "carousel-caption" to something like "carousel-caption1" didn't work as expected. Is there a way to adjust the position of the captions on each slide so that they can be centered, at the bottom, or at the top, for instance?

Edit: Here's a link to my code pen with the carousel sample.

Answer №1

One possibility could be to incorporate a personalized class next to the existing "carousel-caption" class, such as

class = "carousel-caption my-caption"

Afterwards, you can design it according to your preferences in the CSS stylesheet
