I have this html that shows slideshow images using bootstrap 3 :
<div class="col-sm-8">
<div id="myCarousel" class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel">
<!-- Indicators -->
<ol class="carousel-indicators">
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="0" class="active"></li>
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="1"></li>
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="2"></li>
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="3"></li>
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="4"></li>
<li data-target="#myCarousel" data-slide-to="5"></li>
</ol>
<!-- Wrapper for slides -->
<div class="carousel-inner" role="listbox">
{% for p in posts %}
{% if forloop.counter == 1 %}
<div class="item active">
{% else %}
<div class="item">
{% endif %}
{% if p.headimage %}
<img src="{{ p.headimage.url }}" alt="Image" width="460" height="345">
{% endif %}
<div class="carousel-caption">
<h3>{{ p.title }}</h3>
<p>{{ p.teaser }}</p>
</div>
</div>
{% endfor %}
</div>
<!-- Left and right controls -->
<a class="left carousel-control" href="#myCarousel" role="button" data-slide="prev">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-left" aria-hidden="true"></span>
<span class="sr-only">Previous</span>
</a>
<a class="right carousel-control" href="#myCarousel" role="button" data-slide="next">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right" aria-hidden="true"></span>
<span class="sr-only">Next</span>
</a>
</div>
</div>
I want caption to be shown below the image, not over it.
I tried to manipulate the html and css but could not achieve this, so appreciate your help.
Update: Apart from native bootstrap, I have tried these custom css directives (which did not help):
.carousel-inner { padding-bottom:95px; }
.carousel-caption { bottom:-95px; }
Start by changing the position of the caption element from
absolute
torelative
:Demo
I had a similar issue where I wanted the caption to be overlaid on the image on a large screen, and below the image in smaller sizes. I made overflow in .carousel-inner visible. I believe this would be a helpful, alternate way to position the caption text outside of the bound of the carousel images itself regardless of whether its part of a responsive element or not.
Edit: You must also change the height of the carousel (the containing div, not "inner") to accommodate the height of the image plus the caption.
