Owl Carousel Won't Autoplay

Question

I'm using the Owl Carousel on my site. According to their documentation, this piece of JavaScript should work:

<script>
$("#intro").owlCarousel({

// Most important owl features

//Autoplay
autoPlay : 5000,
stopOnHover : false
)}
</script>

But for some reason it will not autoplay. Here is the HTML of the slider:

<div id="intro" class="owl-carousel">
    <div class="item first">
      <div class="container">
        <div class="row">
          <div class="carousel-caption-left colour-white">
            <h2>Title Text</h2>
            <h1>Sub title text here.</h1>
            <p>If you like you can even add a sentence or two here.</p>
          </div>
        </div>
      </div>
      <div class="overlay-bg"></div>
    </div>
    <div class="item second">
      <div class="container">
        <div class="carousel-caption-left colour-white">
          <h2>Title Text</h2>
          <h1>Sub title text here.</h1>
          <p>If you like you can even add a sentence or two here.</p>
        </div>
      </div>
      <div class="overlay-bg"></div>
    </div>
    <div class="item third">
      <div class="container">
        <div class="carousel-caption-left colour-white">
          <h2>Title Text</h2>
          <h1>Sub title text here.</h1>
          <p>If you like you can even add a sentence or two here.</p>
        </div>
      </div>
      <div class="overlay-bg"></div>
    </div>
</div>

Answer 3

You should set both autoplay and autoplayTimeout properties. I used this code, and it works for me:

$('.owl-carousel').owlCarousel({
                autoplay: true,
                autoplayTimeout: 5000,
                navigation: false,
                margin: 10,
                responsive: {
                    0: {
                        items: 1
                    },
                    600: {
                        items: 2
                    },
                    1000: {
                        items: 2
                    }
                }
            })

Answer 4

This code should work for you

$("#intro").owlCarousel ({

        slideSpeed : 800,
        autoPlay: 6000,
        items : 1,
        stopOnHover : true,
        itemsDesktop : [1199,1],
        itemsDesktopSmall : [979,1],
        itemsTablet :   [768,1],
      });

Answer 5

If you using v1.3.3 then use following property

autoPlay : 5000

Or using latest version then use following property

autoPlay : true

Answer 6

With version 2.3.4, you need the to add the owl.autoplay.js plugin. Then do the following

var owl = $('.owl-carousel');
owl.owlCarousel({
   items:1, //how many items you want to display
    loop:true,
    margin:10,
    autoplay:true,
    autoplayTimeout:10000,
    autoplayHoverPause:true
});
