JS event on change of slide in carousel

[fbn]

Hi,

is there an event that fires when the slide changes in the carousel addon? I checked the code and noticed Flickity is used, but I had no success trying to access its change event.

Thanks in advance,
Florian

Dear @fbn
it is not really possible to access this.
Flickity is too integrated in the theme.

Best!

Hi @mariusjopen,

thanks for your reply. So that means there is no way to run an action on image change of the carousel? Is there a way to enable Flickity so I can use its events?

Thanks,
Florian

Dear @fbn
we are working on that regarding another question of a user.
Just a moment…

:-)

Best!

Hey!

Yeah of course you can use flickity's events!

window.laytheme.on('newpageshown', function(){

jQuery('.lay-carousel.transition-sliding').on('select.flickity', function(event){
var flkty = Flickity.data( event.target );
var ix = flkty.selectedIndex;
console.log('do sth');
});

});

Best,
Florian
