Created by Make Do, this plugin will give you a custom post type just for carousel slides, or it will let you use your existing post types to generate a carousel (with an optional ‘featured slide’ checkbox that you can add to any post type).

The plugin comes with a function that you can use to generate a loop to query the slides so you can make your own output, or it will render a Bootstrap 3 compatible carousel right out of the box.

Too complicated for your needs? Try our Exhibition plugin, that allows you to add a gallery of images to any post type, and display them in a carousel.
