For me  the carousel wasn t working in the DreamWeaver CC provided the code in the  template  page I am playing with  I needed to add the data-ride  carousel  attribute to the carousel div in order for it to start working  Thanks to Adarsh for his code snippet which highlighted the missing attribute

Well  Bootstrap Carousel has various parameters to control   i e    Interval  Specifies the delay  in milliseconds  between each slide    pause  Pauses the carousel from going through the next slide when the mouse pointer enters the carousel  and resumes the sliding when the mouse pointer leaves the carousel   wrap  Specifies whether the carousel should go through all slides continuously  or stop at the last slide   For your reference     Fore more details please click here     Hope this will help you     Note  This is for the further help   I mean how can you customise or change default behaviour once carousel is loaded

Recently I was helping a friend to find why their carousel was not working   Controls would not work and images were not transitioning  I had a working sample on a page I had used and we went through all the code including checking the items above in this post  We pasted the  good  carousel into the same page and it still worked   Now  all css and bootstrap files were the same for both  The code was now identical  so all we could try was the images   So  we replaced the images with two that were working in my sample  It worked  We replaced the two images with the first two that were originally not working  and it worked   We added back each image  all jpegs  one-by-one  and when we got to the seventh image  of 18  and the carousel failed   Weird  We removed this one image and continued to add the remaining images until they were all added and the carousel worked     for reference  we were using jquery-3 3 1 slim min js and bootstrap 4 3 1 js bootstrap min js on this site   I do not know why an image would or could cause a carousel to malfunction  but it did  I couldn t find a reference to this cause elsewhere either  so I m posting here for posterity in the hope that it might help someone else when other solutions fail   Test carousel with limited set of  known-to-be-good  images

Here is the changes you need to be done   just replace the carousel div with the below code  You have missed the     for data-target and add active class for the first item   lt div id  carousel  class  carousel slide  data-ride  carousel  gt               lt ol class  carousel-indicators  gt                   lt li data-target   carousel  data-slide-to  0  gt  lt  li gt                   lt li data-target   carousel  data-slide-to  1  gt  lt  li gt                   lt li data-target   carousel  data-slide-to  2  gt  lt  li gt               lt  ol gt               lt div class  carousel-inner  gt                   lt div class  item active  gt                       lt img src  img slide 1 png  alt  Slide 1  gt                   lt  div gt                   lt div class  item  gt                       lt img src  img slide 2 png  alt  Slide 2  gt                   lt  div gt                   lt div class  item  gt                       lt img src  img slide 3 png  alt  Slide 3  gt                   lt  div gt               lt  div gt               lt a href   carousel  class  left carousel-control  data-slide  prev  gt                   lt span class  glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-left  gt  lt  span gt               lt  a gt               lt a href   carousel  class  right carousel-control  data-slide  next  gt                   lt span class  glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right  gt  lt  span gt               lt  a gt           lt  div gt

There are just two minor things here   The first is in the following carousel indicator list items    lt li data-target  carousel  data-slide-to  0  gt  lt  li gt    You need to pass the data-target attribute a selector which means the ID must be prefixed with     So change them to the following    lt li data-target  quot  carousel quot  data-slide-to  quot 0 quot  gt  lt  li gt    Secondly  you need to give the carousel a starting point so both the carousel indicator items and the carousel inner items must have one active class   Like this    lt ol class  quot carousel-indicators quot  gt       lt li data-target  quot  carousel quot  data-slide-to  quot 0 quot  class  quot active quot  gt  lt  li gt       lt  -- Other Items -- gt   lt  ol gt   lt div class  quot carousel-inner quot  gt       lt div class  quot item active quot  gt           lt img src  quot https   picsum photos 1500 600 image 1 quot  alt  quot Slide 1 quot    gt       lt  div gt       lt  -- Other Items -- gt   lt  div gt    Working Demo in Fiddle
